warzkaz list does not include the price of a power supply. For a little bit more, you can get an SSD for faster loading times and overall snappy machine with Windows 10 instead of Windows 8.1. Also, this also has an IPS display, instead of a regular LCD or LED screen for a nicer color representation IMO.

Abit over budget after windows, but get this if you can. Get OS from reddit for $20-30 USD.

You should consider buying the parts from Ebay. 

Minus keyboard, mouse, monitor and OS (which won't you have to have a CD drive for? :S *not sure*) you only have £400 for your computer. 

With Ebay you can find a used I5 for £130-£140. Monitors are usually 22'' = £60 sure it would help with the budget you're on :)! 

Or try this: https://www.reddit.com/r/HardwareSwapUK/

CPU: Intel i5 4670K 4.0GHz // Motherboard: MSI Gaming 3 Motherboard // RAM: 8GB Kingstone 1833MHz  // GPU: Saphire R9 390 Nitro // HDD: 500GB Toshiba // SSD: 120GB Sandisk // PSU: 550w 

Games: F1 2016, GTA 5, TrackMania Stadium, Assetto Corsa, Project Cars, COD Black ops 1. 

Huge fan of Formula 1.
