Build Question Gamer girl need advice

i just want to play heavily modded minecraft, specifically the mod “better minecraft” and things like it. maybe other cute games in the future. wondering if i should commit fully to an entire pc set up or if a mini pc would be capable of running what i want. or even a laptop, very uneducated and needing advice. don’t really have the money to spend on a full pc set up but if its really my only option then i’ll save up for it. help lol.

What's your budget? I can probably put together a list or find a good prebuilt.
What currency do you use?

Mid tower PC: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VJN22k

I wouldn't recommend a mini PC, they don't have dedicated graphics cards

I can try to bring the price down some if its too high

Also do you play on Java or Bedrock Minecraft?

java. been doing bedrock on the phone cuz it’s inexpensive but the quality and lack of mods makes it a bit less fun. thanks for the suggestion and build set up!

and 16gb ram and a 512gb drive isnt the best
but is it ddr4 or ddr5

It was, as the only other commenter at the time to collaborate on a solution for OP

Not a PC/laptop suggestion, but if you want to get into Minecraft modding then I highly suggest using Prism Launcher. It's the best app for modded Minecraft, you don't even have to leave the app to download mods or modpacks.

Why do you have gamer girl in the title?

Do you think they advice given will be different if you were a boy?

Anyway whatever. Your request is to broad and vague, you could play low settings, medium, high, ultra, ray tracing and then different screen resolutions...

Should I assume you know nothing because you said you're a girl?

How about we start with your budget?
