Hey guys. How are you doing?

I am looking for a new Trading computer. I don't know how to build computers and don't quite have the time and would like one that is prebuilt. Also i live in Canada so i am limited on my purchase. so i use newegg.ca to look for  computers. I hope that is a good option!


I'd like my trading computer to have a video card that I can do mining on as a test. Eventually, if i enjoy it and find it has good returns i will consider purchasing many more advanced setups.

From what i gather, the machine that I would like to purchase has

8th gen i7 8700k processor(certain that i want this)
32 gig ram/ maybe 16 gig?
solid state hard drive(I dont care about the size)
Huh?i'm not sure which video card???
I'd like to have 3 24" monitors.

Any recommendations on where i can get a good prebuilt machine that I can order to canada?
It seems like newegg is selling the video cards where it does not have ti at the end of the name.


Here is an expensive model that i am looking at

If you're only trading with this computer, why are you certain you want an 8700K processor?  That's an i7 overclockable CPU.  Why are you thinking of 32GB RAM?  Not even gaming PCs need this much CPU or RAM.  For reference, mining rig builds go with the weakest/cheapest CPU, ie a Celeron G3930 which retails at CAD$58 compared to a 8700K which starts at CAD$460, and 4GB of the cheapest RAM sticks available, ie CAD$50 for a single 4GB stick compared to CAD$300+ for a 2x16GB RAM kit.

Spending CAD$2,500 just doesn't make any sense for a mining rig with just one GPU or for a trading PC that can handle 3 monitors; you can build both for much less.  That setup you linked would make an awesome gaming PC or VR PC though!

Because of our history as a computer company we really like the idea of a mining machine to be more than just mining.The trading machine of the computer related to windows systems.We will test each computer, actively mining before we ship it, during this test we will use your account data if you provide it so that you will be able to watch the test.the storage mining progress to ram process.computers are very limited and provide no advantage for traders.they use cheap components and only mining computer If you trade the market.

actually, CPU for mining enough for the Celeron processor, 4GB RAM but if you don't have time to build a CPU, yeah that no problem because of that's your money and I see a CPU in Newegg using a GPU is 1080'ti. that's good GPU. you can mine on ETH or ZEC coins.

the specification is too good for mining. for mining are Celeron processor and 4GB RAM has been enough. maybe the casing not effectively removes a heat when running mining and for keeping to another part must open a casing it.

you are not reading what the op wants  you should delete your post or correct it.

Trading programs need ram and a good cpu .

I have built a few  for some people.

the i7 8700  or the i5 8400  are decent for trading

16gb ram minimum

a decent ssd or the optane setup all allow the trading to be fast enough.

I assume he is bot trading.

He can then run the 1070 in the background  to pick up some coin.

I built mine with
i5 7600k
2 1080tis
1 500 gb ssd
16gb ram

Please read what the op is asking and correct your post.

The computer settings for mining are very low. It is more profitable for you to buy the necessary second-hand parts on the eBay or Amazon. Can be in Canada there is their substitute for I not know. GPU and power supply need to buy a new one. For this fit newegg. But to you, it will be difficult to collect the rig. To do this you need to find a person in Canada who has experience. There will be problems write to PM.
