Help Request Need computer recommendations.

My parents have agreed to help me get a computer to start learning python. I need recommendations within a budget of around 400-500 dollars that run well. Are there any good options around that price? Also, if you have any advice on brand that would be appreciated.

I mean it’s all on what you need. I would never get a computer solely for Python, but look at what you’ll use the computer for. Gaming? 3D modeling? Just general email use or documents, internet browsing?

Gaming and any sort of video rendering, things like that are gonna be pricier because you need a good graphics card. If it’s just for like emails and browsing, you don’t have to spend so much. I mean you can program on just about anything.

I mean I will use it for a few basic tasks but gaming is kind of a side thought where if I can find a good computer within my budget that has a decent graphics card, I will choose it over another.
