I have supplemented some parts for similar items to get a decent match to price. Adding Mouse, probably around $900 in parts, not including labour.

There are a couple of upgrades available. I'd probably drop in the 500gb SSD for $49 or 1tb SSD for $99 just for the extra space and have Windows pre-installed and find a cheap key. Wifi sounds alright for $39 as well.

    Rather choose 10100f + 6600 combination

    10100f: 4 core but similar single core speed
    (10400f: 6 core)
    6600: 30% better performance on 3d (by videobenchmark)

      The 6500xt would stand no chance against a 3070. Benchmarks isn't the best place to compare, but basics, the 3070 smashes the 6500xt

      I might suggest something like this. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/740189
      It's a step down video card wise (from the 3070), but the 3060ti is a pretty decent card and that rig is well priced.

      Very far off a 3070, with that said, I'm not sure any kid needs a 3070. That's a pretty high end card, used for playing with all the highest settings and still getting high framerates. The card alone costs more than this whole PC

      • icarus255 on 26/11/2022 - 12:47

        Sorry to say but a 3070 was never a high-end card. It's a mid-tier card and it's going to be superceded by the 4070 in a month or so.

          https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/videocard/

          Considering most people have 1, 2, 3, and now 4 generation old xx60 cards and do just fine, the 3070 is clearly a high end card.

          • icarus255 on 26/11/2022 - 13:38
            -5

            @BrokeCamel: Lol That's not what defines a high-end card. There were at least two other tiers higher than a 3070 when it came out.
            The 3070 has always been the mid-point of the 30xx range. I would only consider the 3080 and above as high-end cards. With the new 40xx range coming, it's barely a mid-tier.
            Sure, if you want to play Minecraft and Tetris on 1080 then you probably don't need a 3070 but that doesn't make it a high-end card.

            It's a good card but has always been referred to as mid-tier:

        • Diji on 26/11/2022 - 14:22

          Yeah but the 4070 is probably gonna cost like a grand so kind of irrelevant for many people

    • BadGiraffe on 26/11/2022 - 11:39
      +2

      The card itself would cost more than this. Question is, what does he play, and can he get by with a card with less grunt? An XBox or PlayStation instead, maybe?

    • Tleaves on 26/11/2022 - 11:40

      But 3070 would be a great choice for you.

    • Willy Beamish on 26/11/2022 - 11:53

      Who cares what they request, the real question is what's in the budget?

      Depending on the age of the child and what they are doing with it a 3070 is more than likely overkill, a 3060 would suffice for most applications. Even a 3060 is relatively expensive for what it is, but again that comes down to the budget and what it's being used for.

    • Wonderfool on 26/11/2022 - 12:05
      +1

      Any reason he would want the 3070? That's very specific request. If he only wants it cause it's powerful, get him an xbox and call it a day. Or a machine with 6600xt as a gpu. Much more reasonable.

      • Diji on 26/11/2022 - 14:25

        The answer is probably Twitch streamers

        • Wonderfool on 26/11/2022 - 17:14

          I assume that is the case as well, but you know, just to narrow it down so doesn't have to be an nvidia gpu equipped pc

    • icarus255 on 26/11/2022 - 12:40

      I'm a big believer in buying things to last. Yea sure buying a 6500 or 6600 would be cheaper now but it would barely run any new of the new AAA games and in a year or so your kid's going to be asking for a new card or new computer. The 3070 will at least last a while longer. If you can stretch the budget, spend a little bit more now and enjoy the peace.

      • LuslecGrace on 26/11/2022 - 15:07
        +4

        If people could in the first place "stretch the budget" then that would mean it's no longer a budget, most people can't go from wanting to get a 3070 on a sale to a 3080 without a sale, because in essence that's is what stretching the budget means.

    Also you can get the 6500xt for $195 for the ASRock or the MSI. Can't imagine your selling very many for $279

      The 6500xt has pretty neutered encoders due to being a repurposed laptop chip and there's no igpu either.

  • jsefrog on 26/11/2022 - 11:47

    Great to see cheaper entry to the gaming PC market. The graphics card worries me as little bit… These cards should really be extinct by now, they are not up to handling current market expectation. They struggle even with 1080

    • Willy Beamish on 26/11/2022 - 11:58

      For what it is this PC is fine, it will handle games as well as you'd expect a PC in this price range.

      The cpu is solid, the GPU is not terrible despite performing slightly less than a 1060.

  • barge-in hunter on 26/11/2022 - 11:57
    +1

    I agree that this gpu is low end, definitely. The cpu is also a few gens old…

    But a brand new sub $700 machine capable of any gaming is a good buy in this climate imo. A gpu upgrade in 12-18 months would still leave you with a reasonably capable machine

  • Eeples on 26/11/2022 - 17:30

    They kinda have to ‘dump’ a cheaper video card in this because the processor is not integrated graphics capable.

    For those upgrading the video card, perhaps buying your new one, THEN selling the old one on ebay makes more sense.

    • alcadive on 27/11/2022 - 15:19

      I’m a bit rusty with computer builds. Are you referring to the mobo not having an x16 slot for a GPU?

      • Jimmy77 on 27/11/2022 - 23:54
        +1

        The 6500XT is only PCIE 4.0 4x and 10th gen doesn't support gen4 so it results in PCIE 3.0 4x. 10th gen supports 16x, the problem is the gpu is only 4x

        Hardware Unboxed had the 6500XT suffering up to 60% performance hits when running in a gen 3 motherboard. So in this particular PC gaming performance is only slightly beyond a GTX 960

      "In an effort to cut costs as much as possible, AMD made some other big sacrifices, too. Those include which video codecs the RX 6500 XT is capable of rendering. It doesn’t support AV1 decode/encode or encode for 4K H264 or H265/HEVC. If you need an inexpensive GPU for gaming only, these missing rendering formats may not matter. But if you were hoping to build a budget desktop PC that you could also use for video work or streaming, you might be out of luck."

  • yangmao on 28/11/2022 - 19:30

    LGA1200? no upgrade path, no future, go for 12400f + B660

    • Jimmy77 on 28/11/2022 - 22:43

      Disagree. The far more expensive B660 motherboards hardly justify the performance increase.

      You can get an elite tier b560m for <$130 (prime, aorus, mortar). Honestly it's not even a comparison the b660 DS3h is like $200. I think 12th gen is recommended on reddit/tech reviews due to b660 board prices being less volatile in America.
