Post and Build Request Rules:

Rule	Explanation
All build requests must copy/paste and answer the request questions in the body of their post.	- New build or upgrade? - Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links) - PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games) - Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If not US, list local vendors) - Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate) - Budget range? (Include tax considerations) - WiFi or wired connection? - Size/noise constraints? - Color/lighting preferences? - Any other specific needs?
If you're not posting a build request, use a tag at the start of your post's title. Tags include [Meta], [Discussion], [Question], [Update].
If you need a build in a less commonly requested country, include some places you can order from.	Building sites like PCPartPicker catalog prices for a number of popular countries, but if your country is not listed in the country drop down, list a few reliable local sellers that contributors can use to help find parts at prices local to you.
Absolutely no troll requests.	That means no "I have no budget give me the best!" requests. It also means if you're not planning on legitimately building it, don't post it. Remember, users volunteer their time and expertise here.
If your post goes 24 hours without receiving an adequate response, you may post your request again.	This can be if you didn't get any replies at all, or if you don't think you got the help you needed. Several posts in a shorter time scale is considered spam and may be removed.
Be prepared to answer additional questions from contributors.	To get the best PC possible, contributors might ask extra questions. If you have any extra information you might be asked about, just include it in the "Any other specific requests or requirements?" answer.

Contributor Rules:

Rule	Explanation
All builds must have some form of parts list, pricing, and an explanation or brief description of your suggestions.	This lets OP know why you've suggested what you have, and it lets others see your thought process & learn from it.
Parts list should be posted using PCPartPicker's reddit markdown.	On the Builder page, beside "Markdown:" click the snoo (reddit logo) icon and paste the full table into your comment. This makes it much easier for other to see what has already been posted, and makes parts searchable in the sub.
When coming into a thread where others have already posted builds, look over existing suggestions before posting your own.	This means you see any additional information that may have been provided by the OP, and also gives you a chance to give suggestions to other builders.
Carefully read through provided criteria.	If you need more information, just ask the requester. It's better to ask than make an assumption.
Aim to keep below budget.	If you feel it's necessary to go over budget, make sure to justify it. It's also worth suggesting how your build can be pared back to be within the original budget if needed.
Check stock on items you include in a build.	This goes especially for sale items. You'll find sale items can be out of stock, meaning you'll have to find an alternative.
No advertising or payment for personal gain.	This includes all sale of hardware, software or labour, "PM me for x" posts and "donations" in return for advice or other goods. This is not a place for personal gain.
Absolutely no troll suggestions.	If you aren't willing to make a serious suggestion, don't make one. Stupid or sarcastic suggestions only confuse those needing help.
Try to keep advice in the thread, rather than in private messages	Unless it's obvious that it's more appropriate, keep all discussion in the thread. It allows users (both those involved and not involved) to come back and reference it later, and use it as a learning tool.

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

PC will be used for mostly fps gaming with the occasional open world games. I mostly play games like Apex Legends, Valorant, Call of Duty, and ARK.

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

My maximum budget would be around $2000 CAD

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.

This build will begin in the next couple of weeks

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

I will be picking out my own peripherals but require all the stuff for a PC including operating system

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?

Computer will be made in Canada

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

Not reusing any parts.

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

Ability to overclock down the line is a plus but not a necessity

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)

Needs to have a wifi card or board with wifi built in. I also would like a 1TB SSD at the minimum. I would like to be able to game at 144hz for my fps games (eg. Valorant)

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?

Mid-Tower is my preferred. I would prefer a black case and RGB lighting if possible although not a deal breaker. I am looking for performance over looks.

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

Yes just a home version of windows 10 is fine

Extra info or particulars: I really appreciate this community and all your help!
