So, I need a gaming pc, but I know nothing about them.
I have a pc right now, but it can't really do much, I'm too scared to try. Heres's the stuff about it: AMD A4-6320 APU
Radeon HD Graphics
3800 Mhz
1 core, 2 logical processes
8 GB RAM

I have no idea what any of that means, and I have no idea if I even typed the right stuff.
So, I do need a gaming pc, but I only have around £550. I want to run stuff like: gta, pubg, monster hunter:world. Any ideas/advice on what to do?

That is damn powahfull for the price :) Great setup for the price.
and when you will have additional $ (around a year later):
1. SSD for OS
2. second 2x 4 GB ram.
This will make sure this build is fast and reliable for quite a while

Vapour's build looks decent; any changes would be niggles and I don't need to stamp my mark on your build. Don't forget the cost of a Windows license though, unless you can move the one you have (unlikely); please remember that discussions of piracy are absolutely forbidden here.
If you absolutely must shave cost, get slower RAM, but at least DDR4-2400.
Having recently replaced my own R5 1600X with a R5 2600X, the difference was considerable, although I mostly run stock.
