Need to upgrade my PC so I can play Fallout 4. This requires about £400 which I do have but I'm really stingy so don't want to spend it.

Also I've not built a computer since the early 2000s and I don't wanna gently caress it up.

Its really easy you wont gently caress it up, what are you changing?

Get one of those anti-static wristbands. I don't know if they actually do anything but I hosed up my PSU without one once, and haven't done anything wrong with one so :shrug:

The whole shebang except the case, hard drives and the PSU. Bought this one in like 2008 for like a grand so it still runs ok but you need a quad core to get poo poo done these days.

Tbh you are probably still gfx or ram limited, core 2 duo's still do pretty well. Get a 140£ gfx card and a ssd

Although I got my last PC from a closing down gaming cafe on the cheap so I don't know much about this stuff atm

If the PSU was from 2008, I'd aim to replace that also, even if it was a quality make or model. The components and output/efficiency deteriorate with age, and the PSU has the potential to kill any and all other parts with it if it dies.

This, a million times this, replace a PSU at about the five year mark. Get an i5 and 960 and you'll be flying for a while. An SSD will change your day to day computer life but isn't essential, if you're using old HDDs you may not notice a big general performance jump in day to day operations though.
