Hi.

I'm currently looking to buy a budget PC for Christmas. I had a Gaming PC before but it literally fizzled out and died after a year so I don't want to go all out straight away for that to just happen again.

I want to start down from something small and gradually build my way back up again from a low budget of £300

What I am looking for is not something to powerful (which of course I'm not going to get). If possible I can maybe play CS:GO. I'll need Windows as well with it.

When it comes to actually purchasing a PC I am completely lost, I'm not going to lie and I know a lot of you good people here at Toms Hardware are real experts so I thought I'd come here to ask; Can you technical experts find me a decent PC for below £300? (preferably to be purchased in the UK).

Thank you.

Windows has to be included into that price as he said.
