Hi, I’m a high school student with a part-time job where I make $15 an hour. I’m trying to save up for a PC setup mainly for gaming. I want to play games like The Sims 4 with a lot of mods, Infinity Nikki, Counter-Strike, and Roblox without lag or performance issues.

I can afford a more expensive setup from my savings, but I’d like to keep everything around $1500 max if possible (cheaper would be even better). I’ve seen people build custom PCs, but I’m honestly not very familiar with it and it seems kind of complicated.

What would you recommend for a good setup or build in that price range? I just want something smooth, reliable, and able to handle those games well, or what do you guys have (P.s i dont know anything about computers at all)!
