Mini ITX build - £600

Or maybe a build with a Pentium K with the possibility of moving up to an overclockable i5 in the future:

1 x MSI Radeon R9 280X Gaming Edition OC 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £175.99
1 x Corsair Carbide Series Air 240 High Airflow PC Case - Black (CC-9011070-WW) £75.95

1 x Raijintek Themis Direct Contact CPU Cooler £19.99
Total : £588.43 (includes shipping : £8.00).




Also includes a Z97 board which is overclock capable and a custom CPU cooler which should be able to reach some pretty decent overclocks whilst keeping the CPU at a reasonable temperature.
You could also add a normal HDD if you think the SSD is not enough for storage.
Finally the 280x will be better for gaming than the 280.
