Pre-built PC, need help in picking

[BiddinWar]

Hello!

 

Need some assistance in helping my friend pick a PC.

Friend is in the UK, wants to ONLY buy from Dell (Don't ask me why..) and the budget is at 800 GBP, there is a possibility for the budget to be about 1000 GBP but don't count on it.

Primarily I'd like help in finding something at/around £800 but if you know something that is between 800-1000 as well do link me that too.

 

There is a PC that my friend has looked at and asked about, you can find it here. Would it be good enough or not?

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

1. Budget & Location

UK, 800 GBP

 

2. Aim
Gaming Only + Must be able to upgrade it (Should be no issue but its her aim/requirements)

 

3. Monitors
No monitor needed

4. Peripherals
No peripherals needed

5. Why are you upgrading?
To quote her: Tired of looking at shiny hair in Dragon Age: Inquisition

Lol. Only from dell....what a good joke. You wo 't be playing games at nice settings for a dell 800 pound PC.

The build above is a good one.

Make something yourself, and then put a massive Dell sticker on it or make something yourself in a Dell case...

Tell your friend this, a friend of mine has a Dell XPS machine and regrets it and it's giving her some issues. Gaming and budget prebuilt go together like fine dining and Mcdonalds.

That prebuilt is pathetic, it has an nvidia gt745! That gpu will only be able to run games at low, but you could build a custom pc for that price that could max out almost any game.
