Okay I'm actually getting a new PC now

I've made threads talking about what PC to get yadda yadda but I'm actually going to be getting one now but this idiot sadly doesn't know what to get. And I've concluded that 'upgrading' is too much of a hassle as I've been told by others.

My budget is high 700 pounds. 800 is the absolute max. 

I'm not looking for some extreme high quality gaming as my budget wouldn't even get that, but I'd like to have a smooth experience on games like Arma and such. Also if possible a PC that could handle streaming low quality games like osu and stuff would be great. Thanks!

I used that as a starting point when i put the one I posted together.

The newer 7600k is only something like £1.50 more expensive, so i picked it for longevity.

The mobo in that one was a B series chipset - doesnt allow for overclocking or XMP in your RAM. I picked a Z270 chipset board that suited your CPU and would allow it to be used to its fullest potential for longer.

Memory is fine, though slower speed and £20 more expensive than what i picked in my build.

The GPU is more or less the same one that I picked, though the one in your build is slightly cheaper. 

The PSU in your build doesnt havea price associated with it, so thats not being counted in your build price there. 700w is overkill for your build, the one i put together is 350W, so i specced up a 500w supply for you to give you extra headroom.

I think I'll be using the build you've recommended then! Thank you, will be ordering the PC for summer hopefully maybe a little later so when I get it I will update and such. Oh and also I have no clue how to build a PC :(
