Canadian Online Pc Sales
Can anyone recommend an online seller of desktop pcs in Canada?
I have a friend there wanting to buy. |

If its more than one, let me know and I can get our COO in touch with your friend. For a single machine, I'd suggest Amazon.ca |

For parts I've been using memoryexpress, not sure if they sell full machines or not. Great prices and really helpful... they have a store just opened in my city too.

So thanks guys! |
Cheaper to just build one. It's quite easy and you get exactly what you need. I have always built my systems.
I built this one with an i9 Intel processor, 64gig DDR4 Ram, 1- 1tb and 1 - 2tb hard drives, Radeon Graphic card with 8gig vram. SOOOOOOO much cheaper to buy the parts, case, power supply etc and assemble than to purchase pre-made with a bunch of garbage you may not need. Only 2 things to really watch out for... Static with memory and hard drives and the gel on the processor... You want to make sure you get a good covering without overflow onto the motherboard. I'm sure there are videos on YouTube that can walk you through it.... Once you do it, you will never buy a pre-made system again. ;) |

If you search 'linus secret shopper 2020' on youtube it will take you to 4 videos from Linus Tech Tips where he orders 6 PCs from Canadian companies.
He then looks at what value they offered, the condition they were sent in, what was / wasn't good about them, tries the tech support lines etc, and in the final one declares an overall winner for the best value / experience available in the Canadian market during covid. |

Acer makes a decent machine. I have seen what you have described, refurbished, for 450.00. I believe it is onboard graphics though. Keyboard, mouse, mini-desktop, no monitor. Hope that helps. :thumbsup |
Check out return policies.
I have used Memory Express without issue. |
