I've never built a PC in my life, but I have done a LOT of research on the subject, and I have put together a parts list for a $900 to $1200 CAD Gaming Computer.
The problem is that when I checked the total of my parts, it was $900 american, so it was about $1600 CAD. Any advice on lowering the cost or help would be extremely useful.
My parts will be listed down below, along with a link to a website i can buy it from.
thank you!

Solution
To keep the budget intact, you cannot go with single website. The warranty remains the same from the manufacturer irrespective from where you buy from. This is a better build(CAD) with a stronger graphics card.
You dont need the cpu cooler as the cpu comes with a stock cooler which is good enough.
