How cheap can i build a linux pc if i dont want to game on it? Just browsing, maybe play some videos from youtube every now and then. Mostly browsing and using excel etc for work, no gaming at all.

A potato would probably be enough. But exel is a little complicated. Either you use it in a browser or switch to libre/onlyoffice

an old think pad might be a very good choice for about 150-200 dollars you can get a more then capable laptop for quite a lot of stuff
