I have built full gaming pc's in the past, and I'm really not looking to do that again as my daughter plays minecraft and sims 4. So it's really not going to take a lot. But I do want it to be able to run those very well and some photo editing stuff. I have been looking on amazon at some refurbished HP 8000 series pc's at around $300. Has a 3.2ghz quad core i5-3470, 8gb ram, 1TB hard drive. Fresh install of windows 7 pro or Windows 10. The only things that worry me are the integrated graphics and the slim "buisness" style case as it would limit graphics card upgrade possibility down the road. Should I even worry for that price? Or for what the pc will be used for? Of coarse I would get the 4 year protection warranty. Have been burnt by refurbished computers before. What do the great minds of the forums think? I have always been happy with the feedback I have gotten here in the past.
Thanks in advance

Small factor is really a problem
People will mostly recommend a gtx750 ti or gtx1050ti mini
if u need bigger ones like 1060 or 1070 try buying 90degree pcie riser
