I know this is a build forum and building yourself is strongly recommended, I am not ready for this. I am looking for a prebuilt that is future proofed because I would like to practice by adding new Pc parts to it. This is the most budget one i can find. My budget is £530. Is this good or can you guys find something better?

it looks fine! good luck on your pc building! I did write a few upgrades to consider but realized you were trying to assemble it yourself so if you leave it that way you will be able to upgrade in the future for sure. I'd start with the ram and hard drive maybe 16GB and a larger storage around 1TB that graphics card uses older GDDR5 memory to so you can upgrade the card at some point as well. Don't worry too much about how scary building PC's are it's really easy as long as you follow instructions from manuals or videos. It might be a bit time consuming at first trying to learn everything but man does it feel good to build your own PC and turn it on for the first time.

Pretty sure it's a thing dude I just upgraded this year from the old 750 ti i was using when I was 18 and I'm 22 almost 23 I also had the i5 4460 processor since before that and those both ran all my games perfectly fine except for very recent games. Which is why I have now upgraded so what I future proofed it for like 5 years? I'd say it's a thing.

To a point, yes,

But in OPs case, his board wont be able to handle much more than a 2600.

So I don't think that his specific PC is going to be "Future proof"

Good eye.. ?️ I think OP wants to practice building a PC anyways so this is just another thing he/she can do.
