Are you one of the worrying parents with a son or daughter who truly loves video games?

Nowadays I think we are all facing this same question, the day comes when the kid keeps asking a gaming PC for the next birthday or Christmas.

Ideally I think kids should be at least 15 years old to play games that are violent or high graphics (such as GTA, Fortnite, Left 4 Dead, CS:GO etc.. ). I found them often getting over excited with these games and they refuse to stop until headache. Younger kids can still play Roblox or Minecraft, and other games that teaches programming or languages. You should definitely set up parental control for any gaming console, laptop or PC for the kids.

Should I Buy My Kid A Gaming PC?

Gaming PC is more expensive than a console, uses more electricity than a laptop, and is less portable.

If these are not your concerns then you should totally buy your kid a gaming PC because

• The gaming PC can also be used for homework, youtuber video & audio editing, programming, karaoke etc.
• With a bigger monitor and impossibility to game in bed, gaming PC can be better for kids’ health than a console or gaming laptop.
• The gaming PC is a good investment for him to get into professional eSports, you-tubing, live-streaming, podcasting or game programming.
• You can take the chance to educate your kids how to build it together.
• PC has higher upfront cost but is cheaper than a console in a long term.  If one day the PC is no longer powerful enough you can gradually, easily and cost effectively upgrade it.
