Hello

Can someone suggest any of the following from the comparison? (Or what would make one better or worse..?)

Basically I want to spend up to 1000$ for something new.

I play shooters/WoW.

Thanks in advance.

They are all prebuilts. Not a wise purchase.

Best to by the parts individually and make your own.

is the i3 with the 1060 3gb a descent one? I really don't know. I might suggest that one. but my first prebuilt came with a k processor and a non oc mobo. so maybe if that mobo can oc the processor it'd be ok ish.

still its best to build yourself

Is there a reason you don't want to build yourself? Even in Canada, you can beat any of those computers for $1000 CAD.

What he says.

Im canadian myself and built 2 computers in the last 3years and even the one i built 3 years ago for around 1200$ beats those (keep in mind 3 years is quite a long time in pc tech)
Its really not hard to build it yourself either. If youre scared to fuck something up you can also just buy the compatible parts and pay your local computer repair etc place to put it together should be 1-2h labor fees and if they know what they are doing and care about their work youll get good cable management etc

Thanks guys :)

It's more 'I don't know what to buy'.. when it comes to doing it myself... I wouldn't be afraid to put it together, it's more of just not knowing ..

I would be open to suggestions..

Many thanks!
