(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This is my first time building my own PC. I am hoping to spend $800 max.
By the way, I live in Canada too.

NCIX is American and a Canadian website. The build you listed will likely be more if you go to ncix.ca

But regardless, it's a nice build and I second it. I was going to post another one but it was pretty much the exact same thing with the exception of motherboard, Case and RAM.

I would like it if you could post another list. I want to see differences, even if it is only a few changes.

if you want to spend some more you can swap the 6870 for a 660ti and it will play every single game you will ever want to on ultra for a couple of years

Thanks, but is there something not as expensive. I want to play BF3, but not with such a high end video card.

Sure let me gather my links.

PSU:

The motherboard is unsurpassed for the value. I was looking at an mATX from AsRock on newegg but I can't seem to find it at ncix.ca and I also couldn't find the rosewill case I was looking at since ncix is really cluttered.

Case I was looking at: You must login or register to view this content.

But the case I listed has a MIR. Get it.

Comes to $787 after the all MIR.

Edit: Forgot the cooler, the one listed above is the best one for the money. So go with that.

the 6870 can get high at 50fps on bf3 i'd estimate but the 660ti is the best for the money and it beats 400 and 500$ cards in alot of benches its a very good card i had a 6870 and im getting a 660ti for xmas when they are on sale

:lol: Canadian prices and taxes are way more than those in the US. And the ncix.com is the American website. Ncix.ca is the Canadian one.
