Okay so, let's try this again.
I might NOT end up buying one in the next 3 days, but I would like to see what i could get for my budget. If I like what i see, I would order the parts.
If you don't want to waste your time with me, I understand :P I'm really not a guy that makes quick decisions.

Budget: 600-900$ (Prefer on the lower-mid end if possible)
More specific use (what games, what programs): WoW, League of Legends, some steam games.
Planned time until purchase: Couple days if I like it.
Do you need an Operating System?: Windows 7 please
Do you have any specific preferred components?: Just decent stuff that will let me play the games at good FPS. I want the casing to look different, not a plain black/blue with no design. Favorite colors are red and blue.
Do you need a sound or wireless card?: Wireless card. (Is the signal bad on those? )
Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?: Stock
Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?: Not unless there's a good deal on a 23'' ish monitor. Same with the keyboard, I have a cheap one until I find a deal on a better one.
Zip code/location? (Shipping costs): Canada, New-Brunswick.

Like I said, if you feel that I would waste your time by looking up stuff for me and I end up changing my mind, don't bother looking parts up. ^_^
Thanks a lot.

Check www.newegg.ca just for research...they have all the info, pics, reviews by the average user...etc. there are cheaper places in CA to buy..but like they've said above...deals, combos, promo codes, prices, even whether or not an item is in stock....changes so fast.
...sometimes in days, sometime hours, hell sometimes even minutes lol

^_^ i know but I barely have any knowledge in computer parts.
I could spend time into looking everything up but that could be difficult when you have no idea what you're reading :P

here's a semi-serious build just to give you an idea : http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/Vvrf

note that the ssd is meant for caching ( boost your hard drive speed) after you install the software that comes with it.

Both look really nice.

What's the main difference between a 6core and an 8core cpu?
Also the ssd might be overkill, isn't it?

Also, if someone told me they had a windows 7 cd key for sale, is that legit?
