Hey guys, trying to look for a graphics card (looking for a GTX 1080 that's cheaper but they're all $1k and above atm) and possible a better case with a glass side panel that's more closed off in the front like a Fractal R5. I'm from Canada btw. Thanks.

Prices are high in Canada. But I found and Asus strix 1080 for $775. However, you could get a 1080ti in the states for that price. Graphics card prices are really high right now with the mining craze.

As for a case, I have a Phanteks Ethoo Luxe Tempered Glass and it is the best case I have ever owned, but it is a little bit more than the one you picked out. The Phantecks Ethoo Pro M Tempered Glass is nice too and it is quite a bit cheaper.

Yikes, don't know how my price jumped up to $1900+ but still within range. Should I switch something out? I'm still looking at the towers. I like the Phantek big glass side but not a fan of the front nor the 2 usb only at the side.
