I am looking for a pc that can run: Rome total war 2, kerbal space programme, stranded deep, sims 4, csgo etc. However I don't know an cpu's that do that, so can someone help me?
I have a budget of £350-£750.

Thanks.

This is how a similar (not quite so good) build does on Rome 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAzOODK_G9I
