Help! Wanting to buy my teen a gaming PC

[hk_89]

If anyone could give me any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

My 16-year-old is wanting a gaming PC. I have no clue where to start or what brand would be best. We live in the U.S and I would like to stay around $800 or less if possible.

We would prefer a desktop over a laptop.
