    Yeah, any £300-£400 computer bought new off the shelf is going to struggle to play modern PC games with any degree of fluidity.

    But for £400 I think you could get a machine which is perfectly capable of doing almost everything else.

    If PC gaming is your want you may be needing to look at upping the price range to about £600-£650.
