What he linked here would be an excellent system. Has two issues but they are't hard to get around probably.
1. The cost is a little more than you wanted to spend. Not sure if you can work an extra $40+ into it or not.
2. It has an SSD which will give the best performance for playing games, but the storage space is very limited and will only hold Windows, basic programs, and maybe one or two modern games. You would need to buy a larger hard drive later for more space.
If you have the extra $40 though it would be a good system to buy and just get an extra hard drive later
