I'm guessing pre-built. But I don't know whats good. His price range is like 1-1,500.

I know in the past it made more sense to buy individual parts and build one, but that probably ain't happening here. I also heard with how weird stuff is that no longer provides the savings it used to.

So ideas? I can figure stuff out quick I just need pointed in the right directions.

Honestly how the pc hardware market is nowadays it and depending if they will be gaming. A laptop with a monitor and k&m might be better.

Yeah Crypto really hurt PC. People on my game groups are talking about getting 3060 TI like people used to talk about getting the X/X80 TIs and its sorta depressing.

Prices should more or less be stabalizing now as we exit the pandemic. The only reason I would not buy right now is because we're in the middle of a hardware generation. GPUs are probably your biggest crutch because Nvidia has a monopoly right now and will have one for the forseeable future so they can basically control the market (availability is not an issue anymore).

Yeah you can't buy a good PC these days (or ever again?) unless it's prebuilt, lol. Cryptobros are bringing the future with the ponzichain.
