Screen would be welcomed. No need for OS, Hard Drive, SSD (Dont want one), peripherals.

 

Budget around low to mid 400 pounds, high 400 pounds are ok but not as welcomed :) I dont need to run ultra/high, medium or low is fine.

Outside of my steam games i will be playing rfactor/iracing and FSX with quite a few addons

 

needs to be m-itx or matx because it will be a LAN party pc aswell. And will be in a fairly small room.

This can pack a hefty punch for less than £450. You can also add an aftermarket cooler if you need temps to be lower. You could also do an AMD Athlon X4 750K instead, though it of course requires a different motherboard. It's not Mini-ITX, but Mini-ITX is also a bit expensive and not as nice as everyone makes it out to be. 8GB RAM is recommended, but not completely necessary.

I guess i can downgrade to a r9 270x and get 8gb of ram, it should be able to OC and be around a 280 perfomance right?

I know pc part picker is good for making builds on but my family wont be able to understand it and would rather buy from amazon.

 

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/wishlist/26Y3FDQCKWE7F/ref=cm_wl_huc_view that is the wishlist i made up.

One can still use pcpartpicker. Just set Amazon as the only merchant. - with part list displayed click on Show Merchants in the Price Filters box on the right, then check Amazon. This choice will remain until reset.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
