Budget 1080p Gaming Build

Hi There everybody,

I have a friend who is looking to build a light gaming PC for £400-£450.

He wants to do some light 1080p gaming (Overwatch, CGSO).

Peripherals and a Monitor must be included in the budget.

The current state of the build is this -

Stay away from old AMD CPU'S. If you want a budget gaming rig then your only real option is the Intel Pentium G4560 and a B250 motherboard.

He can save some money since 750W is way too much.

He said nothing about a Case/PSU in his post so I don't know.

The PSU is tier 3, decent enough for future upgrades. Don't want to spend more money on new PSU in the future, that why I've chosen this one.

The Corsair CXM is good enough for this build but a 550W or 650W CMX would be better since he is on a budget and doesn't need 750W for his build.
