I added a small markup on the xs-pc stuff and Frozen stuff since I'm not sure what their shipping charges will be so I estimated. You might want to double check my numbers to make sure everything looks right, but I show a total of $3021.29 plus $196.38 sales tax for a total of $3217.67.

That's an incredible build, Jack. I'm jealous.

It's also about $5K Canadian. Way out of my ballpark.

Specs here
Core i3-6320 3.9GHz Dual-Core, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB SSC GAMING ACX 3.0, 100R ATX Mid Tower - System Build - PCPartPicker

Hi,

Looks like an excellent rig Jack. Have you ordered yet?

My last build (My System Specs) was in Nov. 2013.

I only leave the house to go to doctors, hospitals and shopping for food toilet paper and such and it still took me 3 years to save enough. I don't really have a large income, Social Security.
I just don't spend money on anything else.

I'm 70 years old and need to keep busy. So I do computers, computer related forums, read history and I'm righting a book.
So far I'm got to chapter 31. Just had a operation that should allow me to walk better by spring. Hopefully I will be able to play a lot of pool. I can't stand long enough to play pool at this time. A friend has a building he made into a pool room. He and his wife like to play pool.
He can't play at this time because of his shoulder. The V.A. doctors are trying to fix that for him.
I just keep saving and keep busy.

Jack
