I have put in a lot of research into this. I have a Lenovo H50:
Operating System
Windows 10 Home 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i5 4460 @ 3.20GHz 28 °C
Haswell 22nm Technology
RAM
8.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz (11-11-11-28)
Motherboard
LENOVO SHARKBAY (SOCKET 0) 22 °C
Graphics
S24D590 (1920x1080@60Hz)
1023MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 705 (Unknown) 38 °C
Storage
1863GB Seagate ST2000DM001-1ER164 (SATA) 29 °C
931GB Seagate Expansion SCSI Disk Device (USB (SATA)) 25 °C
Optical Drives
HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GHC0N
Audio
Realtek High Definition Audio

And a couple of things suck from this. I mean the CPU is good, awesome I5, but thats actually the only good thing. I cant overclock the piece of junk GPU cause of the awful OEM motherboard from Lenovo, the ram isnt that fast, its ddr3 at 700MHz, and the power supply is 270W. Feel my pain
But yeah, hopefully should get around £400 for it? So was thinking about building a PC, is this a good PC to have for under £500? Any advice or helpful comments will be very useful and I very much appreciate it

Sorry I don't think you will get £400 for it. Maybe £250-£300. Take the i5 out and its worth probably half that again realistically. Here's an an idea: Keep the i5, the 4460 will perform better in games than the 8320/50 anyway. No point wasting cash on something -as or less performing than you already have. Upgrade your current system in steps. If you got some cash now, grab a motherboard and/or power supply, then a GPU and/or Ram later on. Keeping your hard drives, optical drive and case in the time being. In this upgrading process you rig will never be out of action then.
