Hi, im looking on upgrading my PC of 4 years now and im not sure whats best for my money here is the PC im looking at right now https://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/computing/desktop-pcs/desktop-pcs/hp-pavilion-power-580-015na-gaming-pc-10164793-pdt.html I know ....... Prebuilt but im completely incapable of building my own PC and especially knowing the best parts for the price. I know LOL isnt the most demanding wise on PC's but i will be using it for various other games such as csgo so i want it to be able to run these games at a decent FPS which this PC supposedly can but im just asking is their any other PC within this price range preferably lower that is better than this PC im looking at. Any help would be much appreciated. Here is my old pc which is not made for gaming https://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c04341331 it runs LOL fine but overall the PC is degrading cpu overheating. If there is any upgrades i could do to the PC do let me know but i doubt its worth it. Thanks
 
The disadvantage of that prebuilt is that it has a VERY measly psu, as a matter of fact it's ONLY 180W. I would HIGHLY recommend building your own PC at this price point. You have me and other helpful folks to point you in the right direction, and there are plenty of guides online illustrating how to build a PC. You could even transfer your old HDD over to the new build, so that saves you a bit of money as well. You get just as capable of a CPU with a FAR higher quality PSU, faster memory, an SSD, and leagues better (no pun intended) in the GPU department.

Thanks for the reply and i understand the PSU is a problem however like i mentioned i am not capable of building my own PC watched youtube videos etc but i know ill struggle with all the parts is there any pre built computer u would recommend because i dont think building my own PC would go well
 
Struggling is part of the experience. I could even personally guide you if need be. You are perfectly capable of building your computer, trust me. I can look into some more prebuilts, but you'll undoubtedly be getting better performing parts for a better price by going with custom builds. Also, the parts are far LESS fragile than you think.
