I've been wanting to get a new desktop computer for my birthday and have had little luck finding one that I want. I did find one but it's not being carried anymore, it was a Gateway FX 6800:

Anyone know of a deal or sale for a similar computer at a good price? I'd prefer to buy a new one if possible, but used suggestions are alright too.

I'm guessing you have a pretty high budget if you're willing to pay that much. If you don't mind a little wait, you might want to consider buying all your parts and get it set up by someone else (or by yourself). You could price match all your parts at ncix.com and only pay the GST (5%). Then, you could either add the option for them to set it up for $50 or find a computer store in your area for less. I think cty.ca is near your area and can set it up for $35.
