You're not running anything at max/high settings with a $500 budget.

What are they looking to buy with that $500? If it's just a PC, then you can build a decent enough one to game on for a kid. Even better if you're upgrading an existing build.

Many prebuilt systems are ok, but they tend to come with crap you don't need, thereby wasting money that could've been spent on something else. There will be compromises here and there, but you do gain convenience and warranty for the entire system (vs components).
