Posted

Budget (including currency): Under 2000 CAD

Country: Canada

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Want to use it for Minecraft and games similar to it. I also will use it for some programming.

Other details I will buy when I have enough money. I want to play at at least 60 fps with a few mods (In Minecraft). The peripherals are included in the price (I have none atm).

Feel free to ask about anything else.

Edits will go here:

Edit #1: I realized I didn't say this, but I wish to eventually upgrade the amount of monitors I have and don't want a 144hz right off the bat

Looking at this, I can see some places where I could cut costs. It is helpful to see a list of what someone else would suggest.
(Also, for me a used GPU isn't really an option, I live in a low population part of Canada, and don't trust mail-ins.)

Just don't cut too much on the PSU. If you want to choose something else, try to get something from tier A or B here:
