My 10 yo wants to play Palworld and Hogwarts Legacy on a pc. He already has an ancient Dell which plays Roblox and Minecraft ok.
Palworld seems to have the highest recommended specs...which are expensive to meet!!
We will have to live with 1080 rather than 2/4k, as the price is way to high. Already have an existing monitor and keyboard/mouse.
Looking at overclockers and pc specialists I'm wondering how overboard I can go, really don't want to go over £600 max.
Any recommendations on specs and where to buy eg over clockers etc, or eBay? Happy to build it myself...

Where to buy, where ever the parts are cheapest. My last few builds have come from Scan/Box/CCL/Amazon/Ebay and probably more.
When you know what parts you need then the price is what counts (for me anyway).Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...1 -

Could you play them via a cloud gaming platform? I imagine Hogwarts legacy may be on Xbox cloud gaming at some point as part of game pass.1
