I will start by saying now, my budget is £300, I won't really use it for brand new games I just want to play games like PayDay2, cod mw3, bo2 on highest settings and that.

Now i am not very educated on the whole PC front as it goes so i'm asking you guys for help choosing me one and what would be best for me. I know for £300 i am not going to get an amazing top notch PC which will run BF4 on ultra (I won't play that on PC anyway as i also have a xone and 360 for other games)

So, i have been looking but idk about the whole specifications and what's needed and that so give me a hand?

Since your budget is quite low for a PC, your best option is to build one, or since you haven't got the time, see if any of your friends could order the parts and build it for you?

Since you want to play games like CoD, you're gonna need more than 300.
for 300 you could build a PC without a GPU then put a GPU in it when you have the money?

There's a decent build, minus the GPU, you could use this on the iGPU till you can afford a dedicated GPU to play your games, if you need more help, post in the PC Building section, the members in there will help you out.

I have no friends irl who does the whole PC gaming and that, I am busy with work and my dads the only one with knowladge but he also works full time so i have little to no time to work building it. I am not needing it to play new games like BF4, the new gta and that just older games such as payday 2 but also just for casual streaming videos and such.

I really need a pre built machine

I'd be surprised if you could even find a £300 pre-built that will run those games well at low settings, if at all. You could maybe get a decent APU rig for £300 if you built your own, but you can't get much. You definitely have the time to build a rig. It's a 2 hour job at most. I had time to build a rig when I had school 5 days a week, and work 7 days a week, so I'm positive you will have the time too.

I would personally build my own PC, the Specs on pre-built pc's from big company's e.g Currys etc. are WAY WAY overpriced
