    Laptop for light gaming

    Hi,
    I need to get a laptop for b0redom jnr #2. It needs to be able to do the standard office/youtube/web etc, but also light gaming - fortnite, roblox, minecraft etc.....

    Can anyone recommend anything? Ideally I'd have liked to get a Macbook Air/Pro, but looks like for anything with a dedicated GPU I'm looking at £1700+. Don't really have a budget in mind, but that seems overkill.....

    MSI and Acer have some really good options for light gaming laptops, they are affordable as well so you can go with these two brands.
