What's the best £300 desktop (box only)?

alexanderalexander

My computer is now over six years old and is beginning to get a bit cranky with age.

I want to buy a new desktop (just the box as I'm happy with my current peripherals, which are newer) and my budget is £300. It doesn't need to be compact one. Can anyone recommend something? I use my computer for the internet and word processing/spreadsheets mainly (never gaming).

build one yourself , to your own needs


if you are capable and want to look into this I will gladly assist in you locating the parts needed




with your requirements you do not need a top of the range CPC or graphics card ,


pointless going on if you want to buy a "ready built" unit

Good enough, £190

Add extra 4GB RAM and a 250GB SSD and still under £300

What's your current PC, might even benefit from just a bit of freshening up instead of spending cash.
