It could be ALOT better. CPU is fine, but an I5 is enough for gaming. Change to 8gb ram, since that's all you need for gaming atm. Graphics card is pretty low end.. I'd say, at least, get an R9 280.

What's your budget?

Thanks Tom!
Well what will the graphics card actually do?
Will it just make evryhitng look prettier?
Or will it also raise porformance from day to day?
I have around £200 left over, any good graphics card for that amount?
