Hey there finally decided to go with this build for the likes of fortnite overwatch and the sims 4.
Will it run them fine?
Now can we get it any cheaper but still perform the same.

Palit geforce gt1030 2gb - £50

Intel g4560 - £50

Asrock b250m pro4 - £68

Corsair vs450 - £30

Areocool qs240 case - £30

8gb Ballistix sport ram - £75

Total is £303

I don't know where you're seeing a GT 1030 for £50, but if you can get one for that price, take it. Don't buy the Corsair VS PSU, it's trash. The XFX PSU I linked isn't great either, but it's better than a VS and is the best you'll get for £30. I'd try to spend the extra tenner for this though;

You could save a bit more on motherboard if you wanted;

Also, you're missing storage, so you're gonna need to do something for that.

G4560 + GT1030 will perform better than an R5 2400G, but the 2400G would give you a better upgrade path. If I was going with a Ryzen APU though, I think I'd just get an R3 2200G instead of an R5 2400G, but I'd add a discrete GPU asap.

Exact same CPU with a slightly higher clock speed, so it is slightly better, but I'd probably just save the tenner and get the G4560. You really won't notice a difference between the 2.
