Ok here is what Im looking for:

Processor: Must be Intel. Core 2 Duo or better (Quad-Core)
RAM: 3 GB and up
Graphics: Must be NVidia. Geforce 8500 GT 512 MB or better.
Monitor: 19" LCD or better
Motherboard: I dont know much of these so any recommendations.

1. I need shipment to Canada.
2. Im looking for whole set, not jst pieces, cuz I dont know how to build it and cant read a manual right now.
3. Anyone can tell me how could the price go (Im looking at something not to expensive, under $1000)
4. If anyone has experience, can I buy anywhere on the net without Canadian Taxes (PST, GST, HST?)
5. Any suggestions are welcomed : ))

Thank you

Simple
CPU - Q6600
Ram- DDR2 8400 Crucial Ballistix
MB- Asus p5k Deluxe
GC 8800GT
TFT - Hanns G 22"
approx $1000
any etailer for canada will selll these items, Hanns G monitor may require a thorough look but certainly all items within your price range. In the UK thats approx 500 pounds... for a PC for that performance, dell for the trouble of putting it all in the metal box we call a case for you charge double.... go figure
