Uncle needs PC budget £200

[Absorbentsolid]

My uncle wants a new PC he's running a 12 year old pc and it's time for him to upgrade!

He just needs to surf the web at a nice speed and check emails that's it.

Can't go a penny over £200 sorry.

Many thanks in advance.

Does it come with a heatsink?

Its a retail version, I can't see any reason why it wouldn't come with one.
