Where's the GPU? Just using integrated graphics?

What if the kid actually wants to play some games? xD

With your budget, you can fit what I put together—decent CPU and GPU combo, so you won't be hunting for upgrades anytime soon.

If you happen to have $67 extra cash, I'd throw in a GTX 1050ti. It'll keep you set for gaming way longer. 😁

Jack Reed, you can find the exact same components at Best Buy, though they might charge you a bit more; just swap in a basic case for around $100-$50

Rolling Stone is a pretty terrible magazine, unfortunately.
