My brother recently got a job he worked really hard for and is genuinely excited about it, so I'd like to get him something to celebrate. He's really into PC gaming, but I don't know much about computers or what equipment he already has. What kind of gift would be useful, and what details about his setup or budget should I consider?

Definitely figure out your budget first, then find out a little about his current setup. His PC specifications, monitor situation, and peripherals will determine whether an upgrade would actually be useful. Without that information, buying internal hardware—especially RAM or a graphics card—could be incompatible or unnecessary.
A gift card for a reputable PC hardware store is probably the safest choice. People who build or upgrade their own computers usually have very specific preferences, and he may already know exactly what component he wants next. A gaming platform gift card is another easy option if you’d rather help him pick out a game.
If he doesn’t already have one and you have enough room in the budget, a second monitor can be an excellent gift. It’s useful for gaming, multitasking, and general productivity, but it’s still worth checking what size, resolution, and refresh rate his current monitor has before choosing one.
