This version may take just a little bit oh work, and is almost the exact same performance, but saves $250 from original price

Not really.

 

You will have to find a reasonably priced gpu in stock before getting the rest of the system.

Use ca.pcpartpicker.com to get CA$ pricing. Simply converting the $ is not accurate.

You can still get the gpu at msrp with enough trying. One way i found is best is going to a Best Buy. Get there 10 minutes before they open when they say they restocked gpu’s. There usually is a group of 10-20 people. Get in when the store opens. It’s a lot easier to get one that way instead of staying up til 4am on a restock date for the Msi website for example and competing with millions.

Yup. And get the gpu first. Then you can get all the other parts not worrying, and you dont have to build your pc and either have no gpu or use an old one. Then you can sell your old one with the inflated prices.
