I would up the RAM to the highest frequency possible and increase it to 16GB...adds £37 to the cost but worth it if the laptop is going to last a long time/want to play more demanding games on it.

Hard drive: I take it that your work usage has very little storage requirements? As to the gaming side, which Call of Duty games will you be playing? If it's older versions before Infinite Warfare then you will just about be okay....IW and beyond would not be possible on that 128GB drive as IW + Apex covers just under 100GB alone; modern warfare uses 175GB. So, if you don't have a drive that you are moving over from something else, you really want to up the size..512GB would esnure you are not running out of space.

Remove Bullguard anti-virus and use Windows Defender as it's less problematic. Silver warranty for £5 more gives longer carriage coverage. Dead Pixel guarantee is up to you but I'd personally get the 1 year one for £18.

okay so ive updated the hard drive to 512gb and updated the RAM to 16gb corsair 2666mhz sodimm ddr 2x8gb is that better now ive removed bullguard and defender aswell

Sorry for needing to pick your brain im just super grateful you pointed the memory out to me as id of been so heartbroken not being able to download anything so thank you so much it was an extra 71£ in total an hoping now the changes you suggested will be much better and ill be able to play games now?
