Budget Range: ~$1000

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming > Multimedia/Movies > Web Browsing

Parts Not Required: Mouse, Keyboard, Speakers, Monitor

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Amazon.ca

Country of Origin: Canada (Edmonton, Alberta)

Parts Preferences: Intel CPU

Overclocking: Yes

SLI or Crossfire: Yes

Monitor Resolution: 1600 x 900 (HP 2009m)

Additional Comments: If I could get discounts that would be great.

Here is the build, I know it is a bit over budget but you said you could get parts cheaper. Also you are better off getting a single gpu and then in the future sli it, because you will then get better long lasting performance, the 760 is a good place to start. When in sli it nearly doubles the fps on all games.

May I suggest newegg.ca it can be a lot cheaper.

And I can't currently provide you with a full build but with that budget you should go with a Gigabyte REV 2.0 GTX 760, an i5-4670K and if you save a bit on the other parts you could get a nice SSD.

And may I add to the person above, you should just stick with one website on PCPartPicker because else it can be a torture for OP to get the parts. And disable mail-in rebates.

This rig is beutiful :`), but I need all the parts from Amazon. If you could get a similar rig with all parts from amazon at my budget, it would be great. Thanks for the help so far :)

here you go, i believe you should consider ordering your parts from newegg too as they have some of the best discounts. the build goes even more over budget and uses a couple lower end parts, because it is from amazon only, also try searching each part from the previous build on amazon yourself because partpicker doesnt always have everything you can buy from amazon.
