Those are canadian prices. I'm using a neo***f thread as a guide for the pieces. I don't play that many games on pc, but I want one that is capable of multitasking without slowdowns. And won't be totally irrelevant in 2 years. I'd like to know what you guys think before I do the final purchase.

1000$ for a decent gaming PC is actually not bad considering you can fairly cheaply upgrade a few of the important parts over the years (RAM, graphics card) and potentially make one big investment on a PC last many many years
