So is it possible to buy or create/buy a pc for around 100$ or around that, im looking for something with more that 8 ram and can play some modern games, not all but some, and i dont mean like AAA games, also ive really been wanting to try stable diffusion just to see what it can do.

is it possible to get a modern or descent pc for around 100$, also im a highschooler and ive been saving my money my whole life i got around 200$ but im cheap and i would like to have some leftover incase anything happens. i dont have a job but im been saving from b-days holidays and the coins i found on the sidewalks, should i try to save up more?

    It can be done with some compromises. Linus Tech Tips had a video (can’t find the link atm) for building a 1080p/60ish fps on low sub $200 pc. I’m actually doing something similar for my daughter. Bought an old HP Z420 with 8gb ddr3 and a xeon for £50 plus an nvidia 1660 super for £100, £30ish for an ssd and it’s a perfectly valid basic gaming machine.
