Looking to buy (NOT build) a gaming pc for around £350-£400

I'm looking to buy a pc for around £350-£400. I don't really want to build one as i'm very clumsy and I tend to get stressed out easily. I've looked around online and I found this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dell-i5-2400-Computer-Certified-Refurbished/dp/B01E97IU1K/ref=sr_1_4?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1532277638&sr=1-4&refinements=p_28%3AGaming which looks pretty sweet, however I'm not 100% about buying used hardware. I've also looked at a new pc with a ryzen 2200g, however i've heard it's unsiatable for AAA gaming.

My monitor is 900p, so i'll be playing games at that res. The main games i want to play are overwatch, skyrim, fallout 4 and warframe

At 900P and for those games that system will work fine.

are you sure? Is an i5 2400 gonna keep up with today's games?

As long as you are reasonable with the settings it will be fine.

You'll need to adjust settings accordingly but it should be fine. As long as the motherboard (with updated BIOS) supports it I'd look for a used 3770 at some point to give you a bit more performance. I've seen them (or the K variant) go as low as $80 USD.

i changed my mind, reviews say it gets really hot.

Well it's more then likely there using the Intel stock cooler, if you where to put in a low profile CPU cooler it would probably stay well within safe temps. For your budget a prebuilt is going to be your best bet.

Check these out. A lot better option than i5 2nd gen.
