Ok, i'm good with that. I've built my last couple PCs but was leaning to pre built/custom one this time. Any recommendations on good prebuilt brands? I've also heard it may be easier to get the RTX cards this way vs sourcing one myself. I'm in Canada as well which just makes everything more of a pain in the ass.
If you really want a pre-built, I've heard good things about these people:


If you have an unlimited budget, buy a Corsair One:


Most pre-builts are fucking garbage.

Need to go postal on post companies.


My 3080 sent 3 day priority to 7 days. Day of delivery it alerts me delivered to front reception.... i have a house. Plus it was signature delivery. I call, and it was oopsy in my box, but as far as the signature due to covid they can sign for me....... making that feature useless.

Then these gems. Best buy, Psu in giant box with basically no padding, the little bit of wrap i can crush flat with 2 fingers. Amazon sent the cooler without a shipping box.


Fuck everyone.

The problem is they are price gouging 12GB versions and the old 10GB are not a priority for manufacturing.

Amazon sent me 2tb NVME SSD in an envelope. I sent it back. They did, however, box and wrap a box of wet wipes that were $12.

They also sent me a camera lens in a padded envelope.

Only the motherboard is proprietary in that model. You can replace the fans, PSU, GPU, RAM, drives, etc. It has at least 2x m.2 slots.

The real problem is the airflow sucks.
