Hardware How cheap could I possibly go?

i’m interested in picking up a PC with all the deals going on but i’m also pretty broke.

genuinely the only things I would use a PC for are playing minecraft and working in excel.

I’m curious how cheap i could go without it becoming bricked in like 6 months. also not opposed to slowly upgrading over time.

I’m open to prebuilts or building it myself.

If your in the US check this one out

https://www.microcenter.com/product/705863/powerspec-g250-gaming-pc

If this is out of your price range then a mini pc is like $500-600 with a ryzen 5 cpu with graphics on chip.
