gaming build

[Felixwaw]

So I was curious what a 1000$CAD gaming computer for each team would look like. This is partially a curiosity and also in need of a new gaming computer.

In the Budget I need a ~25" 1080p monitor (with no plan on getting more than one monitor in the future)  and basic peripherals.

The Budget is flexible but id prefer to stay at 1000$CAD.

id prefer it to be included but if not I should be able to spend extra on the monitor

from the red team.  Its a little over budget but you could save quite a bit if you can recycle any parts from another system, ie storage.  Not to mention, I included Windows but that screwed the budget a bit so if you have an old hdd with widowas already on it you could use that and save ~200CAD
