Sry budget £600.. and the monitor he has is the Nitro XV272U .. Maximum Resolution 2560 x 1440
Unfortunately not no m8..
That's a seriously tight budget, you might be better off looking at the second hand market or a console.
My basket at OcUK:
- 1 x Team Group Vulcan Z T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (SKU: MY-0AK-TG) = £35.99
- 1 x Gigabyte B550M DS3H (AMD AM4) B550 Micro-ATX Motherboard (SKU: MB-5BR-GI) = £94.99
- 1 x AMD Ryzen 5 5600 Six Core 4.4GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail (SKU: CP-3D2-AM) = £124.99
- 1 x Kolink Inspire Series K6 ARGB Micro-ATX Case - Black (SKU: CA-047-KK) = £29.99
- 1 x WD Blue SN580 1TB SSD NVME M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 Solid State Drive (SKU: STO-WDC-00540) = £65.99
- 1 x Sapphire Radeon RX 6600 Pulse Gaming 8GB GDDR6 PCI-Express Graphics Card (SKU: GX-39R-SP) = £199.99
- 1 x Super Flower Leadex III ARGB 550W 80 PLUS Gold Modular Power Supply - Black (SKU: CA-063-SF) = £71.99
Total: £635.92 (includes delivery: £11.98)
I'd really try to increase the budget to around £800, that way you could move to a more modern platform like AM5 and pop in a better GPU such as a 6700XT. If that's too much of a push, at least another £100 on a 6700XT would still be massively worthwhile, especially given the resolution of your monitor. PSU options on OCUK are sadly very limited at the moment, they used to have a be Quiet! System Power 10 600w for under £40 which is a solid budget option.

I've updated my post to fit in a PSU, still I'd seriously look at either an Xbox or an increased budget.
Similar to Gray's list, but the case I've chosen has 3 fans meaning you won't have to get additional fans (the kolink in his list only has a single fan) and I've included a bronze psu

6700XT's can be had for £280-320 or so, which I would lean towards along with 32gb of RAM instead of 16gb. It'd be that or a modern platform like AM5 but keeping the 7600, which would have better long term prospects for upgrades.
You could also put in an offer for this:

I'm sure someone mentioned getting one for close to £200 recently. Just hold in mind that OCUK only offer a 3 month warranty on B grade items.
