Is this a good buy for an 8 year old?
I’m looking to buy a gaming PC for my 8yr old. I’ve been out of the PC building game for years since I became a hardcore Apple fanboy.
My initial plan was to get the new Mac Mini so he could use that to game on, he mainly plays Minecraft and Roblox but he’s started telling us that there are space simulation games on Steam that don’t run on the mac.
I’ve seen this in Costco: https://www.costco.co.uk/Computers/Desktops-PCs-iMacs/CyberPower-Ryzen-5-16GB-RAM-500GB-SSD-NVIDIA-GeForce-RTX-4060-Gaming-Desktop-PC/p/466540
- AMD Ryzen 5 4500 Processor
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Graphics
- 16GB DDR4 RAM, 500GB SSD (M.2 NVMe)
- Windows 11 Home & Free 1 year Norton VPN
- CyberPowerPC Blaze Gaming Case
- 4 x CyberPowerPC Hyperloop ARGB Fans
**£549**
from looking at YouTube videos about that combo of CPU and GPU it should play everything he need with ease but isn’t good for the future? I don’t want to have to buy a new one next year, so would this one be easily upgradable? Also, as is, is it even a good deal?
