I am going to build a PC specifically for Internet browsing and 4K video streaming for £300 maximum (presuming all parts are on amazon prime or free UK delivery). I had a parts list which was perfect but the CPU didn't have integrated graphics and it got too expensive as it required a GPU. Here is that list: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/wQD67h. If anyone can suggest a PC for £300 (all parts on amazon UK) with the Fractal Design Core 1100 Micro ATX case and an optical drive. Thanks in advance

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

Spoiler

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
