Do you guys have Samsclub in Canada? If so you can get cheap monitors from there, they sell their Displays for about 100 dollars cheaper than what they would cost new (always the older model though) meaning that they only have the display left which you can put a 1 year warranty on for 9.99 usd.No samsclub up here, or at least in the province I live in. Monitor is not going to be included in this build as I want my current budget to purchase killer components. Then I can upgrade fro my basic monitor later. Thanks for the tip though.
