hi i am going to be building a budget system for my friends son for Christmas ive already got a 1200p monitor mouse and keyboard which i will be selling him for £100

the pc will be made up of mostly used parts to keep the cost down as much as possible. he is only looking to spend around £300 which i think is to low especially for a 1200p monitor but i think he will up the budget if needs be.

what i have specd for him is

dell u2410 monitor razerdeath adder mouse and cheap keyboard £100 (second hand)
i3 2100 £40 (second hand)
ASRock H61M-VG4 Motherboard £50 (new)
500W 80 Plus Power Supply £45 (new)
HyperX Fury Blue 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 £47 (new)
1tb hard drive £50 (new)
case £20
windows 10 key $40
gpu 1050ti £150

i am reasonably happy with this build although if anyone was able to recommend any changes for less money that would be great

do yous think there is a better gpu i could get second hand for cheaper?
 
i'd put together a newer sytem. for example, i have just built a 6th gen i3 system minus a gpu for around £270. a little high budget gets ddr4 and ssd drive etc. i used some 2nd user parts but mainly brand new stuff. looking at around £420 with that gpu.
