£500 Budget!

[NeoReloaded]

Hey guys my cousin is looking for a pc on the budget of £500 and no more than that! He doesn't really play a lot of cpu intensive games, mostly games like, The Sims 2, Faranheight etc!

Could you guys please reccomend me on what to advise him to buy?

Thanks.

I cant advise, i dont know enough, but i suppose its gonna depend on exactly what u need? like do u need stuff like monitor / keyboard / mouse / case etc
