Hi All. My young lad (9 years old) has saved for the last 18 months and is looking for a laptop for playing games. Mainly he plays mine-craft and Terraria. I have no idea what I should be looking for. Does anyone have any advice for me? All advice greatly appreciated. :) Thank you.

I was in a similar boat recently, both those games dont actually need much of a machine to run. You should be able to pick up a good enough spec laptop with an i3 processor, 8 gig of ram and either a 1tb standard drive or 128/256 gb ssd drive.
id go for the ssd, improved performance over extra space.
