hi guys, i want to build a system (a gaming rig) that will last for the next 6 years, although it doesnt have to stay completely update with games. at the moment i have a low starting budget, so i thought i could buy a good MOBO and PSU, and get the rest on budget so that every once in a while when i find some cash i can easily upgrade.
do you guys have any advice or recoommended parts for this.
alternatively i could just buy this

Approximate Purchase Date: the next month preferably this week
Budget Range: (the budget to begin with is around 350-400 GBP
System Usage from Most to Least Important: (office work, surfing the net, gaming (FPS, driving and fifa games, aswell as strategies like total war)
Parts Not Required: keyboard, monitor and os
Preferred Website(s) for Parts:anything trustworthy that delivers to the UK
Country of Origin: england??
Overclocking: maybe in the future
SLI or Crossfire: maybe if needed
Monitor Resolution: 1600x1200
Additional Comments: doesnt need to look all that great though i want the parts to last me 6 years-ish
so we need lots of space for upgrades
