This one looks ok

Ridiculous amount of ram but spec ok other than that - I'd be tempted to ask if they'll swap to 8gb and put the cash saved to a better power supply, and if the 7750 isn't quick enough for you, ask about a 7850 or something
Otherwise if you're in the derby area I'd put one together for a price of a 4 pack
Thanks for the offer but bit too far to drive and OH would prefer getting from somewhere with the warranty etc etc but that does look like a great pc thanks! I just tried to make the same spec on cyber power pcs and it was going to be £480+
So I may well ask if I can swap the 16 for 8 and upgrade the gcard like you said. But would the PSU definitely need upgrading too or would it be okay until the next time it needs upgrading in the future and would a new PSU then be a lot?
Also would it be worth getting win 8 for £15? I'm an XP girl, never wanted or liked vista, so part of me thinks go with win 7 but for £15 maybe win 8 is worth it?
