I ordered a Vanquish 4 level 3 because it was time for a new PC. In my 20's I would buy each component separately and custom build my own PC's taking many hours of meticulous planning and testing.

Now that I'm in my 40's I dont have time to build my own rigs anymore and also dont wanna deal with 10 different boxes being delivered. I wanted a high quality system built with performance in mind with high quality parts, not bargain basement components built around one high end part.

Unboxing/Packaging
The computer showed up in great condition with no damage to the box with all the tape still intact. The expanding foam inside the case to keep all the components in place was a nice touch.

It arrived one day later than the 5 day processing +2 day shipping but it was probably my fault for ordering on a Friday.

Performance
The OS is cleanly installed with zero bloatware, a booklet of discs including a physical copy of windows is included along with mobo and gpu discs.

Checking the task manager and the i5 6600k is overclocked to 4.4ghz as advertised. Loading up a hardware monitor and everything is cool and stable.

I swapped out the GTX 970 with a Titan X and the results speak for themselves



I will order from Digital Storm the next time I need a PC.

I have a fairly minimalist battle station



The monitor is an Asus vg248QE 144hz with a Razer Naga and Logitech MK710 Keyboard.

I spent years gaming at 60hz so when I made the jump to 144hz I wanted a system that could push that kind of fps at high quality levels, is why I dropped the Titan X in my Vanquish.

I get 120+ on every 2015-16 title in my steam library and a rock solid 144 on older games.





The cable management you guys do on these things is great!



I would love to keep my case on my desk but my cat likes to lay in the corner and got freaked out by it so under the desk it goes =(



My monitor stand is a VIVO V001F because I dont like the cheap plastic stands that most monitors come on these days.

Thanks for looking and thanks for a great pc.
