I'm considering purchasing a gaming PC for 700 CAD which has the following specs: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 XC, Intel i9 9900KF, 64GB of 3000MHz RAM, a Cooler Master water cooler for the CPU, a Z390 Plus Gaming motherboard, a 1TB Samsung 970 Evo SSD, a 1TB HDD, a 650W Corsair power supply, and a Deep Cool case with four RGB fans. Currently, I'm upgrading from an i5 4460 with a GTX 960, 8GB of RAM. Is this a good deal?

Absolutely! That setup is worth it, and getting it for 700 CAD is a steal. If you're really looking to save even more, you could sell some of that extra RAM—if it's four 16GB sticks, you'd easily get around 200 CAD back. This could lower your net purchase price to 500 CAD!
It’s a decent deal, especially if you can flip some components. Just keep in mind that sometimes new deals pop up—like I saw one for 900 CAD recently for an AMD Ryzen and RX build. Just think it through before you dive in!
Is that a full build? I’m still deciding my options here.
This looks like a solid machine for the price. If you're focused on maximizing value, selling off parts can really help. I've seen other builds with similar specs go for more, so you’re getting a good deal here!
Definitely a good deal, especially if you're willing to sell off extra parts from your old build. If you think creatively, you could end up paying as little as 300 CAD for this new setup after reselling!
Yeah, that's a lot of RAM! Perfect way to boost your gaming!
