CPU + Board for less than 75 quid is literally not possible without major compromises. Save up for an i3 or at the very least, an Athlon X4

The combo will be hard to get less than 75 unless you buy used. Honestly, the Pentium G3258 might be fine if you OC the crap out of it (which is possible), but I'd save for an i3 (either Haswell or Skylake would be fine).

The G3258 doesn't bottleneck the 750 at all. And its also been shown to be slightly better than an i3 in gaming.

Sounds like G3258 is a better option to me. They're pretty cheap on Newegg/Amazon and you might be able to find a really cheap on used on eBay (but be careful with used - make sure they work properly and haven't been super overvolted for a long period of time).

Something like this?

G3258 CPU

H81M-K Mobo (untested but not untrustworthy)
