You can get pretty much 'one of everything' for $£€ 15, such as this - Fairly random Amazon search result for '"socket set computer"
They tend to not be very high spec, but you never need much force, so they're fine. I wouldn't recommend this kind of price point for heavy-duty work, but for light duty, computer work, most of it will last years.

@Soleil I have a very similar set to that pictured. It's fine for small computer screws such as 6-32. I also have a ½" drive socket set. It would be far too large and unwieldy for a 6-32. It would be very easy to apply too much torque and shear off a small screw. – Graham Nye Nov 01 '22 at 00:33
