Spec me basic home office PC

[ShivP]

Hi all

Just looking for a spec. Thinking 250GB SSD + 1TB HDD, something basic like a Ryzen 3 and 16GB RAM ?
mATX case? Budget around £400. Integrated GPU - no need for discreet
Used for internet, light gaming

Thanks

I'd look for 2nd hand. 2nd gen intel would do just fine for those tasks. My dad has 4th gen middle of the road CPU with integrated (4570s) with 8GB of RAM that does the above & he's perfectly happy with it.

Looking for new build ideally... its a gift

Switch the case for a Kolink Citadel Mesh for better airflow.
