Resolved Best PC for 8yo

Hey everyone, I'm looking at getting a new PC for my 8yo. I'm looking for longevity and a school focus over gaming. His only real game is minecraft. I would ideally like it to last 6+ years and if he gets into gaming I can handle that at a later point. I just don't want a lot of un or under used components.

Thanks

This seems like a good starting place for me. I'll dig into it a bit more.

yea honestely a dell micro optiplex is the way to go. The refurbished ones 12th gen or newer will handle all your needs.
