could you further define content creation and content creation?

 

also, 750CAD is a pretty small budget for that.

I know but being my age is hard to make big bucks and Tech and gaming videos

I would say content creation will come second to gaming performance. Any moderately powerful PC should be able to handle video editing fine.

That being said, maybe Ryzen 3 would suit your needs well? Not sure how well it will realistically perform, but it's only a matter of time.

An RX 480/580 8GB or 1060 6GB would work well

Without rebate (which is how much he actually paying ends up $5 over budget). The card is a single fan so expect it to run hotter and louder than a dual fan HIS card I picked. I'd rather sacrifice 2-3fps for lower temps and noise
