Budget (including currency): ~1000cad

Country: Canada

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: fortnite, cod, val, almost any fps

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I already have a monitor that does 75hz so nothing to powerful since I don't notice the difference, 1080p minimum, upgrading from a switch, I just need a reliable source to buy a prebuilt because my bro doesn't know how to build a pc and doesn't want to try. 

 

Wanting to get this for his bday so I need to order it in a maximum of 1 week.

mouse and keyboard needed? does the monitor have speakers?

these were the best I could find, not bad deals considering they also have a mouse and keyboard (one of them is refurbished but has a 1 year warranty)

alternatively, if you build it for him you could squeeze a 6700 xt (quite a bit better than a 3060 in performance)

btw 32gb isn't necessary so you can drop that down to 2x8 3200 cl16 and get a better psu/more storage
