New Build Help - approx £500

[threeskull]

Looking for a new PC and with the Black Friday deals now seems the ideal time.

Looking to spend around £500 - £550, don't need a monitor / mouse / keyboard / OS etc. Want it to be able to play new games smoothly at a reasonable quality, with an eye on Total War: Warhammer and Overwatch when they're out next year. Not bothered about a flashy case, simplest possible is fine.

I know very little about building PCs myself but my brother could put it together for me.

Could anyone suggest some custom build systems please?

Or alternatively recommend which of the pre-built systems would be best to start off with.

Thanks.

Thanks for that, looks pretty good.

Could anyone suggest a custom build for comparison for a similar price?
