Just the lowest price, I've not got an exact amount of money I'm getting. It's whatever my family can afford at the time. I just thought £500 would be a reasonable price

Usually, anything below £500 isnt really worth it. £500 is about the sweet spot, especially since you need a monitor, KB, and mouse, that will take money out of your budget and leave less for the actual components.
Im sure Sanctorum or Zayev will come on a do a good build.

You seem to not be set on a budget which is going to make it very difficult to actually help, especially if you're just going to keep asking for it to be cheaper. If you want a £500 rig, don't tell us your budget is £550. £500 is not the absolute minimum you need to spend, or the "sweet spot". You just spend whatever you can spend and get the best you can for your budget, it's that simple. Keep in mind, this is a £300 odd rig since peripherals are going to set you back £200.

Add an SSD when possible. Buy the mobo from Scan and ask them to update the BIOS for you. If you don't know what that is, then that's fine. Just ask Scan to do it for you. Don't cheap out on peripherals, especially headset and monitor, that just ruins your overall experience. Cheap kb+mouse are fine but if/when you have more money, you might want to get a better kb+mouse, at some point.

I understand that, but I don't have an exact budget. I would like to spend around £400 for everything, but from what people have been telling me that won't be possible, and the max I would like to spend is £550. Sorry if I'm being difficult, I'm new to this stuff so I have no clue plus I'm scared about building it and it just falling to pieces.

So is your absolute max £550? You keep changing your budget. If it is, go with the build Sanctorum suggested.
