Build me a pc that costs $1000 dollars :)

thephenixa · Feb 6, 2015

Hello everyone, I am new too this website. My friend told me great things about this place...
So,
I am looking for someone to build me a pc on pcpartpicker's website, make sure it's Canadian

The only basic stuff I know and want included is:
8 GB of RAM (Ripjaw was it...?)
Ge Force 970
I don't plan on overclocking, and I already have a windows software ready and waiting

Pretty much I don't know what good cooling systems, mother boards, to use so I'm hoping you guys could help me with that!
So pretty much try and make it $1000 dollars but it can go over a little bit (1050ish) just not 1.1K

Also try and make sure the is build compatible with today's game like GTA

Thank you guys so much, I am really new to this stuff and got confused the second I went on pcpartpickers hah.

I'd recommend adding an SSD at some point, but with your current budget you can't get the i5 and gtx 970 and an SSD and stay at $1000.

here is the same build with a 120gb SSD, puts it just under $1050 : http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/LnGJGX

Great minds think alike.

Without going with an AMD build, it's going to be difficult to get you that 970 with good quality components for less than $1100 - this is close but it has some significant compromises:

If you have the available funds, I would swap the power supply to the Corsair 650W CSM, I would change the case to a Corsair 500R and I would add a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD for your operating system disk.
