Probably don't need anything top of the line for that then, Vcards are still overpriced

The Good Graphics treadmill has finally slowed down for non VR so you'd be set for a while with something mid-tier

Agreed but if he's just playing Valorant/Minecraft/whatever and his son is doing a little Fortnite on the side he doesn't need to go overboard with a (very fine but excessive) 4k$ rig like the above

You don't understand. Part of this is the paternal act of dominance against the son and potential future rival for control of the family.

You don't really need more than 16 GB of RAM and 8 GB of VRAM for gaming.

More memory doesn't mean "faster". It means you can store more stuff concurrently, like Chrome tabs, without reloading.

edit: It occurs to me you may mean long term storage / disk space for installed games. Get a PC with two SSDs.

Get an SSD for things you're currently playing/games with shit loading times and a TB/2TB HDD for everything else imo

Given the current state of tech I don't see why you wouldn't just stick to SSDs for everything unless you're really cash strapped. I haven't used a real HDD in years.

My understanding may be outdated but the smaller the SSD the faster the load times was the rule before

tcr. Saw one for $160 on slickdeals today. Also, even a "slow" SSD is MUCH faster than a HDD.
