I recently went through a similar thought process and ended up going the amp route after spending a lot of time with PC apps. Ended up with a Fender Mustang GTX 50. And I’m one of those people who’s PC is always on. Some info on the process here: Help me choose my next bit of gear - pedals?
If you go the PC route, don’t just get Guitar Rig. I found Amplitube WAY better than guitar rig. I’ve heard Neural DSP is awesome as well but haven’t tried it.
Whichever option you choose, check the field. Check out other amps, eg Yamaha and Fender options too.
