Hey [H] brethren, I have a good friend whose son had leukemia when he was 2 and a half years old and went through treatments for over 3 years and beat it into remission. Unfortunately, it's now almost two years later and his labs came back anomalous. It was recently confirmed that the leukemia has come back in full force and he has begun chemo treatments again. He's 7 now.
His wish is to have a gaming rig since he can't go to school in-person while his immune system is stressed from treatments. Two children's charities (Bear Necessities and Cal's Angels) have agreed to give him $500 each to purchase something. As we all know, had this happened a couple years ago it might have bought a decent PC, but with GPUs priced where they are, it's really not going to come together.
I'm looking for ideas, components, parts, rigs, anything to help him out. I discussed this with compcons at length and thought to reach out to the group here. If you want to PM me to cut a great deal on some former mining hardware or other components please feel free.
If you see any deals online let me know or we can piece together a system from some sales, I'm all for it. I'll also look at what I have that's not in use and fill in where I can:

Games he loves:
Fortnite, Diablo, Destiny, Minecraft,
He mentioned he "wants to get Five Nights at Freddie's, I already have the first one"
