Will pyobably set up for this thanks!

Let's hope these warnings don't get me in trouble :(

Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs.
The Fractal Design Core 2300 ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 380mm long, but video cards over 200mm may block drive bays. Since the EVGA GeForce GTX 960 2GB SuperSC ACX 2.0+ Video Card is 257mm long, some drive bays may not be usable.

no need to update bios

and you're only going to be using 1 hard drive, so you can take out the cage at the bottom

Okay so the build you guys are recommanding me to buy is too pricey with taxes / shipping..

What do you think about this one ?

The guy is the second owner (he said he bought 2 months earlier and decided to sell because he doesn't game)

Comes with mouse, keyboard and monitor. Selling since I don't have time to game anymore. Comes with one of the best wifi cards available.

RAM - ADATA - 8 GB (2x4GB)
SSD - OCZ Octane SII - 240GB
CPU - Intel - i7-920, 2.67 GHz, 8MB Cache
GPU - NVIDIA - GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB
Motherboard - Asus - P6TD Deluxe ($280 value)
WiFi Card - TP-LINK - TL-WDN4800 450Mbps Dual Band ($45 value)

Mouse - Razer Death Adder (lights up blue)
Keyboard - Deluxe (lights up blue)
Monitor - Dell - 22"

Extra fan installed.

Email or text.

** NO TRADES **

If ad is still up, it means the computer is still for sale.

I'm not sure if this is scam or what ? What should I look for to tell if the computer is still usable ?? (IT'S 650$)

it's not a scam,
it's a 1st gen CPU, which means it's like 5+ yr old tech with bits and parts upgraded along the way.
i personally wouldn't buy it, but it will handle csgo/h1z1/league

here's another build closer to ur budget
buying a budget of $650 comp in canada is not worth it, it's much better to save up a couple hundred

that ad is a very very decent build for the price. the 750 ti is a great budget card. i'm using one right now. if it's still up i'd get it.
