I wouldn't buy a prebuilt, nor would i recommend people I know as they tend to cut corners. If you do your digging the RTX 4060 is pointless to buy even as a card if you have nothing as there are better avenues for that money. I would instead go for a build like this;

^ this way you know what goes into your build, you have the option to upgrade and you're not confined in a box. I would also opt for something with an iGPU, as it helps you troubleshoot a discrete GPU related issue. The OS is retail meaning you can migrate the key to another motherboard in case yours conks out. OEM licenses on prebuilts are confined to the motherboard.

Edit: Noticed your edit after my submission. I didn't realize you were located in Canada, nor was I familiar with that site you linked. Only realized after looking.

Here's a revised loadout;
