Note when building a PC, you need to consider every part when building on a budget. Consider the case, mobo, ram, CPU, GPU, power supply, hard drive, cooling, and possibly OS.

Note when building a PC, you need to consider every part when building on a budget. Consider the case, mobo, ram, CPU, GPU, power supply, hard drive, , optical drive, cooling, and possibly OS. If you have parts you can use from a recycled PC, use them. You can get away with used cases, optical drives, some HDD's ect to cut a few costs.
All i can re use is the mouse keyboard and speakers. Might use the same monitor although I've Been meqning to ask does a better monitor slow down your pc?

I'd say you should get the following parts from amazon.ca
Intel Core I5 6600K.
MSI Z170A PC Mate Motherboard
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB Ram (2x4gb) (upgrade to 16 gb if you want to)
EVGA 500w 80+ Certified Power supply
Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB SSD
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD
NZXT S340 Case
Cooler Master Hyper TX3 CPU Cooler
The AMD Radeon RX 480 when it launches

The monitor does not slow down your pc. it can only limit how many frames per second it can show, but i would bet yours has a 60 Hz refresh rate, which emits 60 frames per seconds. You can also buy windows (or pirate it, but i'd say buy it) or use some linux distro
EDIT: The price of the above parts are currently 801 Canadian Dollars on amazon.ca

yeah, buying it is the best option. however DO NOT buy an OEM key, because these can only be used once
In case you didn't realize I had the wink for a reason lol and I think my uncle does have a key although I think I'm gonna pass on the ssd would the case still be good And again sorry if I'm asking too much can I get a price on that?

For the video cards, I've always found this place the easiest for tracking down the best prices. It's where I looked to nab my 980ti for the best price like a month after release when they were *still* out of stock in most places.
https://www.nowinstock.net/ca/computers/videocards/ <---- canadian tracker, might check other trackers if your interested. :shrug:
