Gaming PC for an 8 year old…

[MoveForward]

I need a solid gaming pc for an eight year old… I don’t know shyt about gaming or computers in general. What would be a solid pre built gaming PC that he can grow with? I already bought two Samsung 32 inch curved monitors, are those even any good?

More recommended (slightly above budget but definitely better depending what your kid plans on playing. If hes just going to play minecraft and roblox then the above system is fine. If hes going to play actual games then look into these):

Customize Back to School RTX 4060 Gaming PC

Back to School RTX 4060 - Intel® Core™ Processor i5-14400F - 32GB (16GBx2) DDR5/6000MHz Memory - ASUS PRIME Z790 GAMING WIFI7 DDR5 Motherboard - 1TB WD Blue SN580 M.2 PCIe SSD - Windows 11 Home

Personal recommendation for more future proofing if you can stretch budget:

You're not getting a solid pc for under $1k.

For an 8 year old he can. I just checked my receipt from the pc I bought my teenage daughter a couple years ago and it was $850

I got my teen a cyberpower last year. That said, I paid 1250 for it.
