I've been looking for a gaming computer with a decent cpu and gpu online for a while now but i am currently struggling to find one that suits my purpose.

I'm looking for a desktop that is able to run the majority of game at atleast medium settings at 60fps. (games like destiny 2, overwatch, rainbow 6 seige and gta v).
I dont mind having a refurbished pc as long as a warranty is also supplied.

Curret budget- £350 (although can increase)


I also wouldnt mind building it too much although this would be my first time but i've heard that building pc's are easy and i'm sure with time i could learn though the internet. (Or be lazy and ask the computer shop down the street to put it together)
If building it is the best option than i already have 2 monitors, a hard drive and 4gb ddr3 ram (2 sticks of 2gb in 1333 speed with a form factor of dimm).

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

for that much of a budget, i rather suggest u get an office prebuild PC (one with old gen i5/i7, 8 GB RAM, and HDD) then add a 1050ti (since most prebuild usually had low quality PSU, this card is the strongest GPU that doesn't require any extra pin connector [meaning it's a power-efficient GPU])

voila!

although with enough searching in online websites, u might be able to find good rebate for parts just like how youtubers create their budget gaming PCs (but most of them actually did like what i just told u: bought an office prebuild, plug in 1050ti, game on)
Edit: sell those DDR3 u had, 8 GB is the minimum requirement for new games nowdays (for smooth gameplay)
