I'm planning on coming over from console (Xbox 360) to PC gaming, so I'm looking for a rig that will run all my games but will still run them well. It is a budget build as I pretty much only have the money from selling my laptop, that I am expecting to get 300-400 pounds from.
I would love your opinions on this build plus and improvements or money saves you could suggest. I know there will always be things I could improve, but not knowing much about pcs at all, I would at least expect some improvements.
