Off the shelf or build

[JaneyB]

11yr old son wants a gaming pc. I have no clue what I'm looking for! All we've done is go to Currys but should I be getting one custom built? Budget around £800. He plays mostly Fortnite and will use the pc for school work. Seen the Acer Nitro for that price...any good? TIA

What model is the Acer nitro ? So we can compare.

N50-600 i5GTX 1660
1 TB HDD 256GB SSD

Acer Nitro is generally a laptop.

However I have found a Acer Nitro N50-600 on another site which is a PC but nothing on Currys website (other than ROG Strix).

List the specs of what you have found cos I feel that building one might mean better hardware but please be advised that you will need to get Windows 10 if you don't have it already.

I'm sure you can build somerthing better than that: you want at least 16 gb
