Hi, was given this forum's name by a lovely guy in Game today. He said that you lot could help.
My son is 17 and for his upcoming birthday he has asked for a gaming pc/laptop the problem is with this is firstly, i have only £300 spare, secondly I know nothing about the internal workings of a PC. Thirdly nor does my son.
He wants to be able to play Overwatch on the PC (he has an xbox one s but apparently he NEEDS to play it on a pc as well
)
So after searching for weeks and coming a full circle. So this is my question.....
Is this suitable for what he needs? he might want to stream either now or at a later date?
I do not want to do overclocking (?????) we are not that techy minded unfortunately.....
