Yeah… That is excrement for computers.
Pretty much get the most you can for your price range. I would suggest looking at some amd models for a cheaper solution.
I would possibly give the 370 4gb model a chance. Pretty much the same price or a little cheaper from what I was seeing. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dcomputers&field-keywords=amd+370&rh=n%3A340831031%2Ck%3Aamd+370
But in the end it is what deal you find or what cards you prefer. (Like if you want to get into linux… GO AMD.)
I would also look into getting 16gb if you can fit that in your budget. Would really help performance and the amount you can do! (Though it is totally runnable without! Just a suggestion!)
Hope some of these suggestions help.
