Ok, so I want a build that will not hurt the wallet, but give me the enough proformance to match the ps4! So around the $750-$850 unless you can do cheaper. Also, I'm canadian, which means I have to deal with canadian prices (Screw you canada) so if you make me a build, please make in CAD dollars.
Thanks.

You can even trade the HDD for an SSHD for about $40 if you want.
