    Basically want too build a low as possible budget PC for my little sister.
    Most graphically extensive game she plays is sims 4 and I already have
    a spare GPU
    more then capable of running it.

    Don't need a copy of windows, Dont need a monitor or peripherals.

    Second hand definitely an option to consider, budget build wise you won't do better than something like this...

    Gonna be a shade over 400 incl a case and delivery.

    Not bad tbh, I wouldn't bother with the SSD, She's well used to windows being a bit slower with her 5 year old cheap laptop :P

    It hurts my soul using mechanical drives.

    Depending on what she's doing with it, you could drop the 1TB drive all together and go with a 275GB drive for about €15 less.
