Hey guys,

 

My friend wants to get a new rig and he has a $800 CAD budget.

No peripherals needed, needs OS.

 

Parts from NCIX would be nice, because I live quite close to them.

You can get windows for cheap here http://www.kinguin.net/category/19429/windows-10-professional-oem-key/

My Work in Progress PC http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/522048-xeon-build/ <-- That PC was built but never booted:(

My Work in Progress PC 2.0 https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/540583-xeon-build-20-code-name-xenox (Hopefully this one boots.)

He's quite new to PCs so he is not going to trusting sites like those

This is actually a pretty legit site. Paul's Hardware did a video on it.

Ik how kinguin and G2A works, but sometimes the sellers aren't reputable. If it was me I would, but it's not my money or rig.

Wouldn't x4 860k perform better than that dual core in games?

Depends on the game. The 860k is quite a bit cheaper (especially on sale) and performs well in modern games. The only problem is that you can't upgrade the CPU in the future.
