Hello, i recently just finished my PC built, and with the success of me building one, my little cousin wants to try it so his dad told me to pick out parts, so i've come to you guys again. We are wondering if an i3 is able to handle League, Photo Shop editing (hes an artist), and just be able to stream anime videos. Thanks, i don;t know their budget, but since hes 12, it won't be high.

You'll be fine on an i3. Hopefully Sandy Bridge or newer.

I'd say to push for an i5 if possible, which is a quad-core. The extra cores will allow him to run tasks simultaneously a lot more efficiently than the dual-core i3.

Wife's build: Amethyst - Ryzen 9 3900X, 32GB G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3200, ASUS Prime X570-P, EVGA RTX 3080 FTW3 12GB, Corsair Obsidian 750D, Corsair RM1000 (yellow label)

My build: Mira - Ryzen 7 3700X, 32GB EVGA DDR4-3200, ASUS Prime X470-PRO, EVGA RTX 3070 XC3, beQuiet Dark Base 900, EVGA 1000 G6

That should all be fine. That kid is going to have one badass computer for his age. When I was 12 I had a single core Gateway computer with less than 512mb of RAM and Win95
