I agree on this. Unfortunately this is for a gift to someone who I tried to convince to get a desktop but wouldn't change her opinion.
I get the feeling she won't be gaming to your specs. Gamers have very good reasons for not going desktop, else they go desktop every time. You sure they're into 4060 levels of gaming?
You're right, I should look into the 4050 range.
Do you have a Microcenter near you? Their prices are usually the best I've found. They have some shippable gaming laptops that just barely miss the specs or price target you have from what I saw but it's worth looking into.
