So you'd get it for about £250. The CPU alone is about £200 (roughly = Core i5 4690)
It would be slight overkill, but it's a good starting point / consideration. And it's a great platform if you do upgrade the memory or put in an SSD after. Would be rapid.
That HP server too would be worth thinking about. Well worth it for £110, as is the Lenovo if you want to stretch the spec and get something beefier. Both lots of machine for the money

I'd be very tempted by a cheap server.
Lenovo have been doing cashback for a while. Currently £125 on a '70A50022UK'
