Thanx pal. Will shop around a bit. That computer was on ebay so there is a bit of concern there. 

I had exactly the same concern even thinking Amazon was a safer bet however you're still initially protected either way, I did end up getting mine at eBay and couldn't be happier tbh.

It seems your budget has now doubled, maybe go over your finances again and see what you really can / want to spend? If you'd prefer it to be below £250 as you initially wanted then as I said you're looking along the right lines but if you're happy stretching the budget now then by all means go for something better 👍

What's your recommendations for £600?i can scrape that up so not a problem. Also it's got to be a desktop not a laptop

Mate, the first PC you asked about is absolutely fine.

I was in a similar boat to you, I didn't want to spend more than £350 but everyone I seemed to ask for help mentioned spending more so I did, I spent £550 on one that I wasn't happy with before spending £700 at PCSpecialist for another I wasn't pleased with and had multiple faults.

Someone then mentioned to me about a refurbished Dell optiplex and I got one for £120 with 8gb ram, integrated graphics and a i5 3.3ghz processor and I'm far happier with that than any of the more expensive recommended purchases.

I run at least the top 2 divisions in England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Holland, Portugal & Scotland with a medium dB and the game has 4 stars and plays lovely.

The PC you linked for £159.50 is fine, you could maybe get something slightly better for a similar price but what you're looking at hits the mark for what you want 👍
