Hey,
Im trying to persuade my friends parents to let my friend to get a computer but they dont think building a computer is worth it and they dont trust him to get good parts.

I also need to find a build for myself as I need to get my self a secondary PC for at my grandparents house (I go there alot and I cant take my computer over there)

I did have a build for around 450GBP but its outdated now.

I need one for each of these price ranges
300-400GBP
400-500GBP
500-550GBP


Requirements:
-I would personally prefer it if the case was plain black or white (Side window is optional)
-Try and ensure its the best you can get for the price range.
-No Peripherals are needed.
-Modular Power Supply would be best but thats up to you.
-No Pentium if you can help it. If it is 400+ I5 Would be preferred (or an AMD one of a similar standard)
-Decent graphics card (The build I have at my grandparents runs an Nvidia GT 630 so something like an AMD 270x or somthing similar would be nice)
-Something that doesnt need overclocking off the bat.

I know its alot to ask but if you could do it that would be nice
Also just if you are new to this make sure you do it on something like pcpartpicker and make sure its set in the UK so its in GBP no USD as the price is alot higher here.

Thanks,

Why so many different budgets? The cheaper one will have a i3 and no ssd. the more expensive one will have a i5 and a ssd. Not much else will be different. Come back once you have a set budget and nearing the day you will be purchasing all the parts.

Also £300-£400 at such a low budget that £100 difference makes a massive difference. Say a set price.

For my Personal build im look at £500
I need the other builds for example for a friend.

Also don't prioritise an SSD Id rather get a better CPU and GPU over getting an SSD which I can get later easily.

For £550 you would want a ssd in the first build.
