Buying A PC?
Buying A PC?
I've been looking for a PC for a while. As a serious gamer, I need an upgrade from 30fps. But my parents are still against it. I don’t need a super expensive one, but they won’t change their mind. I’ve offered to help by using my saved money and selling my old setup. That would give me around $380, and the PC I want costs about $1,400. Any suggestions?
We don't know your current hardware details, making it hard to give advice. Do you have a link to the 1400 dollar PC?
You won't be able to afford a gaming PC for 380 dollars. The best choice seems to be saving more money instead. You might consider purchasing an older refurbished Dell and installing a low-cost graphics card, though you may not enjoy the results.

I currently have a Nintendo Switch.
At the 1400 dollar range, I’d probably explore other ready-made choices instead of sticking only with HP. Options like Dell, Lenovo, Dell Outlet, Asus, etc., might be worth considering. If you have a budget of 1400, you could likely achieve a better build for around 1400 or an equivalent model for about 1100. However, making your own might not always be feasible. Pre-built PCs are often criticized for over-specifying RAM, graphics cards, and hard drives, and they push users toward Windows Pro rather than the more flexible Windows Home.
