low budget pc

[ILikeGaming]

My mate needs a low budget pc. Budget 300 pounds, lives in England.

Looking for best computer for 300 quid he doesnt mind getting parts of ebay or used as long as they work.

thanks

ebay, find a used sandy bridge i5/i7 and motherboard  and ram and a used ssd/hdd

possibly get a used 750ti

don't get a used 750 ti, get a used gtx 470 (if you can get a 500w psu); better performance, but of course its older and takes more power. though nvidia is still updating drivers for them.

 

i'd say a used i5-4xxx

you should buy ram new for ease of compatibility, but only get 4gb sticks. everything else is costly right now due to drying supply.
