£300/$450 Gaming PC Build

Fizzz

So I have a £300/$450 budget for a new PC, but I need help with what parts I should use. I already have an OS, and keyboard, mouse, monitor and headset. So I just need the actual pc (UK parts)

 

I want to be able to play games like CS:GO at max settings 100+ fps, and games like fallout 4 and CoD at medium settings running at least 60fps.

 

Also, here is a build I found on YouTube, is it any good?:

 

 

Merry Xmas

Truthfully, not even look at that video, I'd recommend kicking the budget up to £600 if possible, you can get a lot better rig with that extra £150

 | CPU: AMD FX 8350 + H100i | GPU: AMD R9 290X + NZXT Kraken | RAM: HyperX Beast 2033 16GB | PSU: EVGA G2 | MOBO: ASRock 970M |

| CASE: Corsair Carbide 88R |STORAGE: 1x WD Black | KEYBOARD: Corsair K70 | MOUSE: R.A.T 9 |

SOMETIMES LOSING THE BATTLE, MEANS YOU CAN WIN THE WAR

CSGO easy, but FO4 and CoD might be abit harder.
 

The best budgets build for this price range will be AMD-FX6300 and EVGA-750Ti, these will provide a decent gaming experience.
