It depends on what you're trying to spend. Like dude above said, don't go the laptop route. If you're looking for budget, but good gaming start looking at Ryzen 5 5600x or better and a motherboard with overclocking for it. 16GB RAM. For gaming, at least 500GB SSD but 1TB or better would be ideal.

I can't call it on the GPU side. There are too many at this point and they are all over priced and/or sold out right now. You'd have to dive into that research to figure out what you can even get your hands on

You might end up getting a laptop because it's it's easy to get hoed on the GPUs right now

Unless you travel a lot for work theres no way i can recommend a gaming laptop.

a mobile 3080 aint the same as a desktop 3080

plus the thermals gonna throttle that shyt even further, plus laptops are so limited on what you can upgrade.

unless your kid a fortune 500 employee on the road, they gonna have to settle for a desktop.

need to know your budget as well.

yeah, not to criticize anyone's parenting, but why get him a gaming PC if his grades aren't good enough for a phone?
