Will this game be able to run GTA V and anything under that?

The CPU isn't the best but has to be under £500 so if anyone suggest a way to save money on other stuff to put towards it that would be helpful

Change the CPU to a Pentium G3258, and I'm sure someone will give you a different suggestion about the GPU :)

Don't want to go any cheaper on the CPU, if anything want to spend more on it.

I'd stick with the CPU. From the looks it's won't be there to long. Plus with i3s you can trick games into thinking you have four cores to boot up since som games don't boot up without 4 cores. The GPU go for a r9 280x or r9 380 if you can.

Think he's planning to stick with this build for a while so the CPU will need to be good enough for a good few years

. That is a top,tier i3 but no dual core will,last for a few years. Games are starting to utilize more cores.

Think other than GTA he wanted to play Sim's and just do work, will it do for that?

Go cheaper on the gpu and get a better CPU for GTA ( R9 270x / 285 / 380 )

 

you could also spend less on the case

I hope u ment go cheaper on cpu cause i've never of an i3 r9 270x ;)

If you're formally an engineer, avoid responsibility. That's what senior engineers get paid for.

I would personally go for a cheap i5 and a meh gpu unless he isn't planning on upgrading.

 

If so, then keep the i3 and gpu

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.
