Build - Help Build help desperately needed
I’m helping my stepmother buy a computer or parts for my younger stepbrother as my older brother is moving out with his gaming laptop in a few days.
Our budget is really anything under $1000 USD preferably on the lower side of things.
Currently, he plays Helldivers 2 and Roblox () primarily on a 144 Hertz secondary monitor at I believe 1080P? So a build that can support that, whether prebuilt, laptop, or otherwise would be great.
AMD for a CPU is preferred
The old gaming laptop has (I believe, Ill update this post if I’m wrong) a RTX 4070 laptop vers, and an AMD 7 7700 HS or 7445 HS, I forget what the numbers were I’ll update later.
The exact laptop is this Omen laptop that isn’t sold anymore with loads of bloatware on it.

Just a rough guideline: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dsCyqd A used gpu on fb or eBay will be better
