An i7 4970K (DDR3) or similar CPU can actually be decent in 2026 for gaming.
This is what i donated to my SO and she is happily gaming on it every now and then. It may be old but it is still good.
I hope so, i got one :). But nvme is expensive, gpu is expensive, it just sucks. But, the kid will learn about upgrading your stuff, i hope :)
