Pc for home ~£300 please

Just need the PC, no peripherals. It's for my grandmother to do light browsing and not much more however her current pc is 12 years old and a bit useless. I'm so out of touch any advice for deals would be hugely appreciated thank you

    For browsing a laptop/Chromebook/tablet is all thats needed - this will be supported and up to date - better than some old PC being suggested (edited)

    Yeah true, a laptop would probably be best.

    For simple browsing you don't need to break the bank either

    Plenty of bargains on Facebook Market place. Picked up an hp 280 g2 8gb i5 for £55 and runs really fast once I replaced the dvd with an ssd for £15

    Grab one from CEX?

    Acer XC-1660/i5-11400/8GB DDR4/256GB SSD/GT 1030 2GB/W11/B £220

    It hasn't got windows installed but you can do that yourself for about £10.

    Completely unnecessary, I would just go to my local Cex and pickup something for a lot less which should do the job

    If it's for browsing and your grandma. Just grab a cheapy refurb. Plenty of them on the net and Facebook.
    Can pick something up with half the budget imo.

    Or you can get mini pcs from Amazon with quad core intel N processor's
