With that budget. You really should build it yourself. That PC will have horrible gaming performance. If you are not willing to build it yourself. Then buy a used system.

Here is one from an eBay Powerseller in the UK. Whom refurbishes used computers and updates them for gaming. It will perform much better. As it is a Powerseller and you get eBay/Paypal buyer protection along with a 30 day refund policy. I can see no reason not to go this route. It will perform much faster

- 8GB RAM
- GTX 1050 2GB
- Windows 7 Pro (you can update to 10 yourself)

If you are willing to build it yourself. This will perform faster and has a fairly high quality power supply. The units in the PC you linked and the above computers are most likely cheap junk. As they make no mention of the make or model. If they had something good they'd advertise it.
