so I am 13 and want a gameing computer that will run games decently well at medium to low setting. If you could I would like a price range for something like that.
At medium to low settings? That's a bit high.I'd say 700-800. Any less and you'll regret it.
Yeah, then it will be complete shit that will be slow AF within the first year.At medium to low settings? That's a bit high.
Ryzen 3 costs more than the Pentium right now.You guys honestly don't understand low budgets sometimes. The kids 13, a $600 computer is better than no computer and when you have little to no income ya gotta make do. 8GB of RAM and going with a Ryzen 3 build would probably net about the same cost and perform better. My first computer was like $550 all in and it was amazing for me at that age and spring boarded me into building.
Hence dropping to 8GB of RAM.Ryzen 3 costs more than the Pentium right now.

Bro, don't even.. he's 13..where do you think the money is coming from?
Unless he's one of the 1% of kids his age that have any flow from a part-time gig, he part of the 99% where his folks, or guardians are likely paying and he's getting quotes and help from us to drop some info on them.
I'm 36 and been through every high and low you can imagine and trust me, I get the importance of a budget but I'm also not going to recommend something that I wouldn't do myself.
Also: POST # 6000 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's fair, I'm more just coming from the point he asked for low to medium settings and both builds we did would be in medium to high territory on most titles.Id rather teach the kid the idea to save more before spending. That mentality is more geared towards avoiding impulse buying.
I was mowing yards at that age and was able to afford my computer from that. Don't get mad at me for stressing the importance of budgeting with a kid. If anything even more so when spending the parents money.
Also there's absolutely nothing wrong with that build I just spec'd. Pretty respectable if you ask me.
