No way you're getting 16GB RAM in a £550 PC. It's an easy upgrade later though. You can just grab any cheap £10-20 keyboard to save money if you want. I'd try to grab a used GTX 970 instead of the GTX 1050Ti.

Is their much difference?

Or just choose a set budget (700 once, 900 the next, now 800.)

You don't need to RAM i clearly explained it last post. Do as I or 13 said in it, and just look around for a used (970, or 980). That would be sensible for 16GB but it is an easy path to upgrade whenever you have the extra.

@13

I would change the motherboard to something slightly cheaper, and swap the case. From experience, and the few times people have wanted me to build in it; it is a utter pain in the ass to even attempt cable managing (any sleeved, and even flat cables are hard to get around in here). Shitty airflow unless all slots are occupied in a pull and just a single exhaust.

The S340/focus G are both within a reasonable price bump (£10-20) for a more premium build, and feel. The focus G would be a better point for a few reasons. Much better airflow, Full length card support, rad support, cable management room for a the price is good.
