Budget: $2k CAD
More specific use (what games, what programs): Runescape, League of Legends, CSGO, Minecraft, GW2, Diablo 3, watching streams/Youtube
Planned time until purchase: I can purchase this whenever, but preferably within the next 4 months
Do you need an Operating System?: I'm kind of computer illiterate when it comes to technicalities but if Windows 7 is an OS then that's what I'm used to.
Do you have any specific preferred components?: Uh, I don't have any specific preferences. I just would like something that runs games on decent settings without any lagg/delay
Do you need a sound or wireless card?: I have a decent pair of headphones so I'm not sure if this effects it
Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?: Probably stock cooling as I don't even know how to overclock
Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?: Monitor/keyboard yes.
Zip code/location? (Shipping costs): Toronto, Ontario

Your budget is overkill for the games you have listed.

Will run everything you want to play on Ultra settings and then some. You don't even need to spend that much.

You can save about $75 on the OS by buying it from MicrosoftSoftwareSwap on Reddit. Its $20 USD there.

/e

Of course, if you add an SSD it'l be another $100 or so.

Thanks! I've just saved up 2 grand and set it aside for PC. It doesn't all need to be spent but I'd just like a computer that can run nearly all games or most on max settings without delay.
