Hello,

I was thinking about buying a pre-built PC because I don't wanna do it myself but I found a local store who could put it together for me so I'll give it a shot:

Approximate Purchase Date: Next few months. I could wait if there's some crazy new CPU generation or something like that coming soon.

Budget Range: Around 2500.00$CAD

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Mainly gaming

Are you buying a monitor: Yes

Do you need to buy OS: Yes

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Anything in Canada

Location: Montreal, QC (Canada)

Parts Preferences: Never had anything else than Intel for CPU

Overclocking: No

SLI or Crossfire: No

Your Monitor Resolution: High enough so that the GPU isn't bottlenecked too much

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading:
Having trouble running new games with my current PC

Thanks :)

Patrick
 
Next few months.
Prices and parts availability can and will change in the next few months.

Slightly over your budget;

but it's in no manner, shape or form set in stone. There's room for fine tuning.

2 SSD's are in there, smaller capacity is for OS and launchers, the larger drive can be your game library drive. You didn't specify what resolution and size of the monitor, which is why I went with 1080p 180Hz. You also didn't specify what games you'd be taxing the build with.
