Can anyone help me out with regards to putting together a basic PC gaming machine for less than £250? My 8 year old nephew really wants a gaming PC to play games like Minecraft, Call of Duty etc and I'd love to build him one for Christmas however my funds are limited to £250. I know this isn’t very much in the gaming PC world but I’m hoping it will be enough to put something workable together that could play most games on average graphics.



I hope someone can give me a little bit of a helping hand and put some kind of build for me together.



Any help is greatly appreciated!



Thanks

This PC will be enough for minecraft(at about 30-60 FPS), and probably for the older call of duty games, but at this budget you can't really expect to much.
