There you go:

Faster i5 processor, will considerably outperform that 8350 in gaming.

More suitable RAM..anything over 1600 is pointless for games, really.

1TB HDD, much cheaper than the hybrid drive. With this sort of budget you should be getting an SSD, anyway.

I just changed the case because I thought that one was pretty hideous, to be honest.

Different display with a nicer IPS panel.

Saves you over 100 pounds while having better performance. You might as well throw in a 256GB SSD with that difference, it really really make your computer feel more responsive.
