Anything with gaming will need top specs to play the latest games. Have a google around but don`t just buy anything as you may end up buying a laptop that won`t play the games he wants to play. Your looking at something like this if he wants to play the latest games and in the future https://www.scan.co.uk/products/173-asus-tuf-gaming-fx705du-au035t-fhd-ryzen-7-3750h-16gb-ddr4-256gb-nvme-ssdplus1tb-hdd-6gb-gtx-166?gclid=Cj0KCQjwho7rBRDxARIsAJ5nhFo5v120rq-ELKLjXm8Zp6IgrOHijybD-GpKlC30zQ1FgRvz2CoEgrkaAmo1EALw_wcB

Would he not be better with an Xbox or PlayStation ?
Or can you only buy games for the laptop?

Kingster has the right idea with gaming laptops. You're not really going to get one for less than £1K that is even remotely future proof.
PlayStation 4 is a much cheaper option and has lots of great games on it and some that are exclusive. Xbox one is a good console but lacks the titles in comparison to pc or playstation.
I would ask him what games he wants to play, then you/others might be in a better place to help with either PC specs or a console

Chillblast are good, that's the place we got lads other year. I had no idea and phoned them up and they recommend one
Asked a lad a work to check spec out and he priced all the stuff up and came back to me saying I couldn't build it cheaper and that it was high spec at the time
We added some extras like lights inside and better spec processor ( think that was it)
Worth a look maybe
Lads was a pc not laptop

I would definitely agree with some of the other comments.
Gaming spec Laptops/PC's have to be powerful with expensive graphics cards etc. and so will be expensive.
You should definitely talk your son round (as I did mine) in to having an Xbox One, PlayStation or Nintendo Switch etc. as they are better value for money in my opinion.

here's a good site: https://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/ct/laptops-and-netbooks/laptops/gaming
the Asus TUF range are good, I have a 10 year old son too and thinking about getting this (a special 'one off' expensive present!), decent spec, for £600 isn't bad with the type of graphics card that's decent.

I've never really needed a gaming laptop, since I do gambling at most.
