I agree... Get a job. You shouldn't be buying that shit for him. 3k-5k... I work in IT and I would never spend money on that shit. Waste. If he likes games. Get an Xbox One X and call it a day. I like gaming... But It's not worth it on a PC. Prices have gotten crazy. You want him to get out of the house every so often.

So many hating trolls for one bridge. These 2^ are jerking each other off about who knows what.

A lot of people here against computers for them all to be sitting on one trolling a thread when the op asked what computer not if he should get him one. You guys keep pushing your no kid having parenting advice from behind your “computers”

Its fantastic that you have thrown your two cents in and seem to be looking for an interweb fight, but you don't seem to have answered any of the OP's questions..

I'm sorry.

OP, I think you should get him an Aventum 3

Dimensions & Weight:
25.7" Length x 10" Width x 28.3" Height ; Weight up to 75Lbs

Front Chassis Connectivity:
2x USB 3.0 ; 1x Audio/Mic Port ; 1x USB Type-C 3.1 ; Multi-Card Reader

Storage Expandability:
Up to 8x 3.5" HDDs ; Up to 8x 2.5" SSDs

Memory Expandability:
Up to 128GB DDR4 System Memory

Wireless & Networking:
Up to 2x LAN Ports ; Optional 802.11ac Wireless

Might as well spend a little extra and get him the ultimate package for it. It's really expensive but apparently your son is destined to be the next Pewdiepie so go for it.

AMD Threadripper 2990WX

64GB DDR4 3000MHz

GeForce TITAN Xp 12GB

500GB M.2 NVMe Drive

3TB 7200RPM Storage

$8,362.99


Oh, but wait, didn't he want 3 monitors?

The Acer XR382CQK is supposed to be the best on the market at the moment.

$1,132.99 x3

He also wanted a green screen and luckily those are pretty cheap a large one with all the goodies goes for around $200.

You'll probably need to get him a second computer just to stream off of so he doesn't lag, that's what most of my friends from youtube did back when I still had a gaming channel and was in the gaming community on there.


Other things you might consider getting.

Microphones

Sound deadening material for the walls

Video editing software

For the record. I use my phone to type this. Also, why not post this question on a forum for Computer Gaming? You would get a lot better responses. Not all "Computer Nerds" are Computer Gaming Nerds. At least put it in the Title. I was hoping it was a Security question. 8)

that's how we know it's bad for you, you want your kid to have a fat ass, wince when he gets up, and develop sciatica from sitting on the nerve so much?

he does not need 3 screens. the best gamers in the world play on just one. 23 inches is more than enough for a desktop setup.

you can paint a wall with green screen color (google the code and most paint stores can mix a can for that) or you can use a kit. green screen kits are like 20 bucks on amazon I think.

for recording video games he'll probably want to use FRAPS. google it.

and for recording and getting high FPS on both the recording and the game you need a high end gaming rig - most out of the box rigs won't cut it to record.....

and I don't think you are counting the peripherals - good gaming peripherals are expensive...

he'll also want to have a decent microphone... and a light with a diffuser (easy to build - regular 60 watt equivalent bulb pointed backwards towards a white background box)......

make sure you have the space for all of this - I don't think your kid truly understands how much work goes into setting one of these things up.... he might have to downsize his bed... and editing videos takes foreer.....

and lastly - Power Consumption. some older homes are not built to have that many things plugged in. if you are in a newer home then there's no issue. but if you are in an older home (built before the 1980s I would say) - then make sure there are no power surges/dips when the PC is on... you wouldn't want to fry your kid's new toy..... get a back up battery supply - not just a surge protector.....

good luck.
Thanks I'ma use this info when I go to best buy
