Also, if you have any recommendations for a decent gaming PC within $700 to $950 CAD, please share!

Total scam. $1300 CAD for a basic i5 and just 1650 is theft. Also, without an SSD, this machine will run sluggishly.

This construction is a waste of effort. The alternative proposed by @Fasauceome is superior globally.

I believe you can purchase a more advanced PC configuration at a lower cost But it's up to you

Disappointing ready-made PC. The specifications seem insufficient for the cost.

Hey there, I get it—you're looking for something ready-made—but this isn't the best option. You could make it yourself for around $750. I'll search for a better computer that fits the budget. Check out NZKT's site.

Prebuilding and Alienware are effective strategies for saving costs.
