Hi everyone, Mlpoknzaba here and I need your help with something.
The Problem
(cue dramatic music) My family and I are in desperate need for a new computer. Well, not that desperate, but we would like on before Christmas, plus saying "we kinda want one" ruins the whole 'dramatic' scene. Anyway, I digress.
Our current computer is full of useless old files and programs. It is over five years old. It runs Minecraft on 20 fps on the lowest settings with optifine. Now, I know that some people have worse; but they don't have money for a new one, and this isn't some kind of sob story thread, so if you have a worse computer than me, please tell someone else.
My family and I have spoken about getting a new one, but have never gotten round to building one or buying one.
TL;DR: My current computer sucks and I need a new one.
The Task
I need your suggestions. Seeing as I have very little experience in building/buying computers, I need someone who knows what they are doing.
So, can you find/build me a computer with the following criteria?
TL;DR: Go and read it, I won't say it again!
Thanks for your time, hopefully I will get some good advice!

So, can you find/build me a computer with the following criteria?
- It must cost under £850. Please don't go higher than £900, I'm not interested, we don't can't afford/won't pay that much. 850 is pushing it.
- It must be able to run Minecraft on max/almost max settings with an fps which is good for pvp (over 100 preferred, as much as possible really)
- If you are building it, it doesn't need a hard drive. We have a 2 TB portable hard drive already, which I think is enough.
- Some kind of Microsoft Office would be great, 2007 is perfect for us.
