$1900 CAD First gaming rig

>What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

  • Games like Skyrim, Modded Minecraft, CS:GO, etc.

>What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

  • 1900$.

>When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

  • Whenever they go on sale, but my deadline on buying them is a week from now.

>What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

  • Wifi card and a sound card.

>Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

  • BC, Canada.

>If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

  • My buddies lending me a mid tower case, not sure what its caleld, and a 750W silver certified psu from corsair.

>Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

  • Maybe down the line, but its nowhere near a priority.

>Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

  • 250 GB or higher SSD, and a Nvidia graphics card (980 or 980 ti) w/ intel processor would be preferred.

>Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

  • n/a

>Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

  • nope

>Extra info or particulars:

If possible, I would also like to use this for something like streaming or running a minecraft server, so I want it to be fast.
