Low Budget Mini-ITX gaming PC

[idk710]

Since I already have a laptop, I wouldn't like a full on gaming PC. So that is why I would like to ask what is the best way to go. I just want a machine that is quite small yet can play games moderately well. (Kind of similar to an Alienware Alpha). An example is I play ArmA 3 alot so I would like to see anything around 20 FPS on high settings in Multiplayer (Since ArmA 3 isn't well optimized that much, I can't tell if my ambitions are too high or too low). My budget is probably anything under £400. I'm 14 and I can't convince my parents to go higher. So I know I won't get the best gaming performance but I would like too get somewhere. Another requirement I would like is if there is a VGA output. You don't need to include a monitor or keyboard, just the main essentials.

Thank you very much for listening.

You need to check what coolers your mobo surports but The hyper 212 evo is amazing for the pice. It just keeps temps down and less noise. Im not sure if any other coolers than stock will fit in an ITX case due to their height.

Ok so that case can take a full size ATX PSU so I would recomend an efficient, Well built XFX TS 550w. Not cheap but really good. Also about the cooler your case only surports 14cm high cooler. An hyper 212 evo is 16cm. I would stick with the stock. Your case only surports up to 26cm cards make sure the card u want to get fits. Remember diferent companys make it different sizes
