I'm looking to build a Ultra-budget 1080p PC for some casual gaming.. haven't really set a budget yet, was wondering what system people could come up with.

The most demanding games this PC will be playing will be, at most, Battlefield 1 - this one doesn't need to be maxed out (Medium/High is fine). Other than that the other games aren't all that demanding (2014/2015 games).

I'm in the UK.

You've got to be looking at around the £500 mark. Go for something like a G4560 (cheaper) or a Ryzen 3 1200 (better) with a GTX1050/RX560/GTX1050Ti depending on budget. If you give it a few weeks GPU prices might start to come down now the value of bitcoin has started to crash.

Under 1K, but you could get even better if the GPU prices were normal...

Yeah I've seen GPU prices are crazy at the mo. If i had to pick a budget I'd say £500 - £600.

Also, as Volta should be out by summer (hopefully) I'd be willing to just get a second hand OKish GPU for now, there's a GTX 760 on Gumtree near me for £55.
