Where would you buy, and what is your budget?

If you are looking for a pre built pc, you will mostly get what you paid for.
The caveat is that such a pc may not be upgradeable.
The usual power supply will only be strong enough to run the supplied components.
And, it will be only of mediocre quality.
The usual upgrade for a gaming pc will be the graphics card.

Then, what kinds of games would you play?
Fast action games like shooters need a strong graphics card.
More cpu centric games loke sims,mmo,and strategy games need strong single thread cpu performance.

Multiplayer games and streaming like many cores/threads.

Terms like "low end" and "mid end" are completely subjective. Your really need to be detailed about your needs -- what kind of gaming, what kind of streaming, how you're using the PC with art -- and your budget.

Art work as in 2D soft shading artwork.
Streaming would include the art and gaming.
Games would be Genshin Impact, Overwatch 2, and Dead by daylight.

Also able to run multiple programs while streaming on twitch.

fellow canadian here. i would try pre-built from canada-computers or memory express. theyre blowing out the msi pre-builts pretty cheap. they usually have good psu's in their units.
or try a independent shop to patronize the small computer builders. just my 5 cents. (no pennies in canada)
