Sorry, but I live in Canada as well and have built several computers myself. These numbers you're citing are BS.
I DON'T WANT TO BUILD A COMPUTER.
No more than I want to build a ps5. We're talking about a ready to go machine off the shelf.
Nobody who isn't a niche PC gamer wants to build a PC. It's a pain in the ass and I don't want to hear another comment saying it isn't cause I don't wanna hear it. I DON'T WANT TO BUILD A PC

Yeah, Nvidia will certainly shutdown in the coming weeks, sorry to see them go under. But I guess their business is too niche for all the R&D spending clearly beyond the Sony.
(Put this /s here, just in case)
I don't know how it works in your market but here, the major hardware retailers will assemble your machine for an extra 80 euros or so.
