So my parents are going to get my brother a computer for Christmas, but it has to be from best buy so that they can pay it off without interest. (Because my brother does not know how to save money!)

I already have looked at the Alienware Alpha that they have. So if you could find a pre-built or build one using only Best Buy and Best Buy marketplace.

 

Location: US

OS: Not needed. I have keys for 7, 8 and 10

Keyboard mouse: Already have them

Monitor: Already have one (1080p)

 

Max price $550. (Don't go over)

 

What I have already:

And 8GB Laptop RAM

5800X3D - RTX 4070 - 2K @ 165Hz

Or you could order the parts from amazon with a amazon store card and choose the 6 or 12 month financing option. Its interest free! Then you could build it yourself and get alot more for the money.

If it is not from best buy it is not happening. I already went over how much I hate doing this with my parents.
