Trying to help a Canadian friend find a computer. She won't build one herself, and it's too expensive for me to build it and ship it to her. All I know in Canada are Best Buy and NewEgg, just trying to get some options.

There's a few companies up there that would put it together for her for a fee if she wanted something custom but didn't want to do the work herself.

Just comes down to the budget, what it's going to be used for, and personal preference on what she wants.

/edit

That being said pretty much any reputable company is fine if she just wants one off a shelf.

Best Buy Etc.

You buy parts and get someone local to assemble it.
Where in Canada?

Actually ended up finding her one with a 3700x and 5700xt for way cheaper than it would have cost to buy the parts, and a ~2070 super is a huge upgrade over the 1050 she was using lol. I think the thing was mispriced but amazon honored it... just the gpu and cpu cost 80% of the pc... and it had a 1tb nvme + 2tb hdd + 16gb decent ram also.

Good enough to last her as long as her 1050 did lol
