For Canadian PC gamers, buying a high-end prebuilt rig from an American brand usually comes with an unpleasant reality check at checkout. Between shipping fees, fluctuating currency exchange rates, and the logistical nightmare of cross-border warranty claims, the process is rarely seamless.
Canadian gamers now have another option as leading system integrator iBUYPOWER has announced the opening of a major Canadian facility, bringing their operations directly into the Canadian market.
A Dedicated Headquarters in Markham, Ontario
This new facility is more than just a regional storefront. iBUYPOWER is introducing an in-house factory to assemble PCs, with dedicated customer service and marketing teams based in Canada. This move follows a successful trial run with major Canadian retailers, which confirmed strong local demand for high-quality prebuilt systems at accessible price points.
“Establishing iBUYPOWER’s Canadian branch allows us to integrate directly with our community in this country, and ensure our overarching mission goal to offer as much value as possible to those that buy a PC from us.”
~Tom Lin, Sales Director for iBUYPOWER
What This Expansion Means for Canadian Gamers
If you are currently evaluating options for your next gaming PC, this local presence offers several distinct advantages:
- Local Assembly and Quality Control: Every PC ordered through iBUYPOWER Canada is hand-assembled, stress-tested, and shipped directly from the Markham facility.
- Simplified Logistics: Purchasing directly from a Canadian headquarters eliminates international shipping delays and unexpected customs duties.
- Streamlined Warranty Support: Systems purchased through iBUYPOWER Canada’s website are backed by their standard three-year warranty on labour and parts. If a hardware failure occurs, systems ship to Markham for diagnosis and repair, significantly reducing downtime.

iBUYPOWER Canada Expansion: Frequently Asked Questions
Is iBUYPOWER officially in Canada now?
Yes! While iBUYPOWER systems have recently been available through select Canadian retailers, the company has officially opened a dedicated Canadian headquarters. This means they now build, test, sell, and support PCs directly in Canada.
Where is the new iBUYPOWER Canada facility located?
The new facility is located at 35 Riviera Drive, Unit 11-12 in Markham, Ontario. It serves as an all-in-one hub featuring an in-house assembly factory, marketing, and customer service teams specifically for the Canadian market.
Can I buy directly from the Canadian website?
Absolutely. You can now purchase directly from the iBUYPOWER Canada storefront. Their line of RDY Prebuilt Gaming PCs is available for direct-to-consumer purchase in Canadian dollars (CAD).
Will I have to pay international shipping or cross-border customs fees?
No. Because the PCs are hand-assembled and shipped directly from the new Markham, Ontario factory, you won’t have to worry about unexpected import duties, massive cross-border shipping fees, or international transit delays. You are buying local.
How does the warranty work for Canadian buyers?
Buying local means getting supported locally. Any system purchased directly from the iBUYPOWER Canada website comes with a standard warranty covering three years of labour and parts. If your PC experiences a hardware failure, you can ship it to the Markham facility for diagnosis and repair, which drastically cuts turnaround times compared to shipping it back to the United States.
What kind of PCs are available at launch?
iBUYPOWER Canada is launching with their high-performance RDY Prebuilt Gaming PCs, featuring the latest next-gen hardware like AMD Ryzen 9000-series CPUs and NVIDIA RTX 50-series GPUs. Current standout models include the RDY Scale B06, RDY Element Pulse X White CR01, and the powerhouse RDY Trace X White CR02.
Will I still be able to buy iBUYPOWER PCs at my local retail store?
Yes! iBUYPOWER will continue to supply its prebuilt desktop systems to popular Canadian retailers. However, buying direct gives you access to a wider variety of specific RDY configurations and direct support from the Markham team.
