1500 (Can) gaming PC (first timer)

Is canadian money the same as us??

If it is then do this

i7-3820 @3.6 ghz(300 dollars)

GTX 670 (400 dollars)

GA-Z77-UD5H(150 dollars)

Kingston hyper x 8 gb (45 dollars)

PSU 600 watt corsair (60 dollars)

Case- nzxt phantom(120 dollars)

It comes out to $1080

with the money you save then get a really cool 3d ps3 monitor check it out

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... it has special glasses so each person sees a different "screen" than the other! this is what i would do

Prices are higher.
What resolution is your monitor? Do you need a new Windows 7 disc?

^The 3820 is NOT compatible with Z77 boards, and the Phantom is a pretty bad case for the money.

NCIX is good too...

Why_Me has put together some solid builds +1 from me - DirectCanada is also very good(personal experience).
2fast4the town - do some research before you give advice please (slow down).

Direct Canada is like the Newegg of Canada. Neweegg Canada has very expensive shipping. I think NCIX has very solid prices too, if you live close to one.
