Doing my first build, Im mostly going to be using the rig for gaming. I've yet to pick a GPU and some recommendations would be nice. For the GPU and the whole system in general. The system also needs to be around $800-$900. Keep in mind that I live in Canada.

This will be around as good as it will get for a GPU.
