I'm helping a colleague to build an entry level computer for her 11 year old daughter to use for gaming and streaming of said gaming.

Is nvidia still the best option/less hassle if you want to stream gaming? We are talking 4060/ti or hopefully she can wait until the 5060/5060ti drops. I think it will be 1080p gaming

If it weren't for streaming I would probably recommend an AMD card, as it would be nice to not be limited to 8GB.

Is the AMD 7500f fine or is the 7700(X) recommended?

I answered in the other thread. I think the AMD 7500f and 7700XT would make the best bang for buck streamer setup. I simply would not settle for 8GB in 2025. Particularly at 4060/tie pricing. The market being a mess, not many options to choose from.
