At this low of a price, especially factoring in peripherals, I would say that the best thing for you would be a used office machine (XPS, optiplex, etc.) At that price, your best bet would be getting your hands on a system with a Sandy Bridge i5 (2300-2500) or better.

 

Make sure that the case is large enough to support a two-slot full height graphics card, and purchase one down the line. You may need to upgrade the power supply to support older or more high end cards. My recommendation for a GPU would probably be a GTX 750Ti or 1050.

instead of 300 bucks I went with 21000 INR. Unfortunately, going with the cheapest I could I still came in over budget

how hard would it be to save up a little more to afford this? It offers a good upgrade path to modern processors and a drop in graphics card upgrade option to make the gaming experience a lot better in the future.

In this came if you need peripherals as well I'd recommend getting an older office machine like a dell optiple. For the budget you should be able to find 3rd to 4th gen equiped dell optiplex if you look for them, alongside add an rx580 which is around 100$ and around 100$ for the dell machine leaves you with around 100$ for peripherals, though it might be less than 100$ for peripherals because shipping might cost a little bit. For around 37$ you can get a 1280x800 vga display. For around 10$ you can get this mouse and for around 7$ you can get this keyboard and for around 9$ you can get this headset. That totals to 263$, the rest may be needed for either shipping, a mousepad and also a cable for the monitor as it may not be delivered with one. This system should play modern titles fairly easy like fortnite, gta, rainbow six siege, cs go etc. For future upgrades you might want to look for better peripherals. A good place to start would probably be the mouse and work your way up to like getting a better monitor
