Why the comments about gaming? Why as soon as some one sees a desktop they think ahh gaming PC, this is nowhere near a gaming PC. Ah but you need to add in a GTX 750Ti then it will game, oh really well done, it's still not a gaming PC, it's crap for gaming and you shouldn't be thinking of putting a GPU in it unless you like budget gaming. Budget gaming for £353 (adding in the cost of a GTX 750Ti) it should be called, cack gaming for people who can't afford a proper gaming PC, not their fault probably, oh I hate this! really I do, shut up about gaming on crap desktops. Crappy new desktop that you don't and shouldn't want for gaming.
This desktop should be called the "No need for gaming here, no gaming to be seen, please move along, OI! you I said no gaming wtf are you trying oh GTA V really? GTFO!"

That's a great price for a good system, although you would probably want to add a discrete graphics card for modern gaming at above 720p. Hot.

can someone who knows about these sorts of things suggest a gpu that's suitable?

I'd check with the seller, but these cheap gaming machines will usually come with a PSU that is low quality and/or doesn't have any PCIe connectors. In that case the best I'd suggest would be a Radeon R7 250, since you should be able to run it in dual-graphics mode with the 7650K and get respectable performance at 720p. Anything higher and you'd have to change the PSU, at which point you'd be better off looking for a different PC anyway.

I wouldn't buy this system if you want add a descrete GPU. The CPU included is supposed to let you play some games, if you don't need it then you should get an FX-Series CPU, which are more powerful overall and probably cheaper.

750ti as it's pci express powered, but always enquire about psu when buying a built pc
Roughly identical parts but better PSU and Case, would work out £230-250

No O/S included for those that care about such things

Yes, that's true - I was simply pointing out that this needs an O/S which could be anything you like.....and wish I hadn't bothered as I've created a monster.

Bought from Fierce PC about 8 months ago. Great customer service, but the power supply on this case is cheapest you can get. So incredibly loud, it's literally like they've tried to make it loud. It also broke after about 4 months but got it sent back with the Warranty and got it back within 6 days or something which seemed amazing. I've bought another power supply and voided the warranty now though.

Great if you just need to book a holiday and check your facebook (I believe people still do use that site). Which of course does not need anything close to 8Gb RAM.
For anything much more than that, you're going to have to swap out the PSU, the hard disk is nowhere even close to enough space for games AND media, so add those 2 in and you'd wonder why you didn't just pay a bit more.
