I'm planning on building this build below. I don't really have a budget but also don't want to go super over board. Please send any better options if you have any. Going for an all white build for my PC recommendations are appreciated.

 

 

 

Edit: Budget is around $2500 CAD can go a bit above if needed

Everyone has a budget. Not putting one isn't going to help anyone help you.

I'd suggest waiting for the fall to build. There's loads of new stuff right on the horizon.

....then just wait until you're ready to build. Everything else will change in price and availability.

No point in putting together a build when the most important elements are going to change.

Then I'd buy everything but the CPU and GPU, and grab a used APU to use for the month or so before the new stuff comes out. Sure, it'll suck to not be able to game, but it'll be worth the savings and better parts you get for it...plus you should be focusing on adjusting to Uni anyway.
