hello there so i'll be simple and short on this one i don't mean to make you go throu a wall of text the person who bring me the build that i end up buying (or buying most of my parts from it anyways) will recieve a decent FG donation! (few hundreads fg)

I'm going to know in 3 days if i get a contract... wich will yield me enought money to clear all my debts + buy myself some nice stuff

i'd be buying the computer parts in around 3weeks to 1month (thats when id be paid)


what i mostly use my current laptop for: Gaming processor demanding games (for exemple path of exile... if you think the game isnt demanding cause the graphics arent THAT awsome well i suggest you to play it on some characters that spam 20spells that fill the screen per second )


i also watch movies and series on my laptop but i guess thats not a factor as it is not demanding at all, i also do not need a dedicated sound or wireless card

id need a OS i guess windows 7


i DO NOT do video editing and most likely will never do, exept maybe small stuff for friends or youtube from time to time but really nothing that i cant already do with my 2011 asus RoG laptop so...


the hard disk space isn't really something that matter to me as i have a external 1TB already and its way more than enought for me. i guess something like a +- 200gb SSD would be enought for the entire build (id put the games on it and thats it lol)


i'd need a build that i could eventually upgrade over the years so i dont care too much if at first i get a tier 2 or tier 3 GPU that i could upgrade when i get more money ^^

so as i said my budget is in CAD (canada's dollar) and i live in canada, last time i bough pc parts from the us i had problems and had to pay borders fees and all that so i'd like if any canadian here could give me a build with canadians parts


the budget is 900-1100(for the case, and everything that is inside of it) can maybe add a little bit more for a keyboard and a screen (would be looking for a screen of 22-24inch maximum, no need huge thing)



is this possible guys?


edit/ fuck i did a wall of text

You should wait until Black Friday. This year, it comes on November 27. There will be deals leading up to the day which are usually better than the Black Friday deals. With your budget, you can expect a build that will meet your requirements.

This guy nows knothing







jk he is best

Uhm that sounds like à good idea considering ill only have thé money 1-2weeks before that date

Should i expect deals of like 30-50% or what haha

It's possible, but uncommon in Canada.

allright well do you think i can get something decent within my budget? technically id like a kind of cheap graphic card right now BUT want my motherboard and the rest of the desktop to be UPGRADABLE so if in a few month i have another 600-800$ to spend on a gpu upgrade ill be able to

i dont want to run new games at ultra graphic or anything, medium graphic is fine id rather play medium graphic with 100-150 fps than high with 60 for exemple

With your budget and Black Friday coming up, you can build a really nice computer all at once instead of upgrading in a few months. You can allocate your budget to the core components (ie GPU, CPU). Then later on you can buy accessories and luxury items (ie SSD, case fans, effictive cpu cooler).

Youre probably right maybe i should get some cheap hdd and stuff and focus on the GPU cpu
What scares me is that if i get a a 300-400$ GPU in a near future it will still need to be replaced i dont know anything about vous exept that NVIDIA is the leasing/best company and when i checked their tier1-2 product the price scared me ( i mean my entire budget barely gets me a 980x titan if i remember correctly hahahahahah)

Also what series of GPU and cpu should i be looking for? Checked for a few minutes and i saw amd is like 2-3x cheaper than intel for cpu but idk if repliable, never had problem with intel before so id prolly still go for it but wich one? I see so many différent i5 like they have the same GHz but one is like 5500 one 4900 one 6500 what does that do exacly exept raise the cost

And for the GPU i guess a NVIDIA GTX serie would be good? GTX is their tier2 or did i missread something?

You could aim for a GTX 970 or R9 390(X). What games do you play?
