Light gaming for below £350/$600

Ello

Off to uni I go and with me I need a PC. I've read a few things in regards to pre built vs self build, whether or not it is worth to build your own when working at a low price point like this (I have no idea still).

I've got a budget of £350/$600 for PC alone (without any software or peripherals). Any suggestions for which I should go for and any good builds or links to some suggested UK pre-built would be top notch.

Cheers!

This build is probably the best you can get for 370 quids. If you want to save money you can get some G. Skill RAM.
