Are you sure your ram is compatible back and forth between the 2 rigs?


Assuming it is, and you are gaming at 1440p then try this

1768397


If your res is lower then 1440p, then go with 1070.

As for my thoughts:

Today I was thinking if I could fly but had to turn in to a bird, would I want that?

I am sure the ram is cross compatable.

Not sure however as to how to load that config?... new here.

The 1080 is for futureproofing though i am aware its a bit overpowered for 1440p

You click on Load Config on the top and enter the number.


I agree going with the 750 watt G psu.   The 600 watt is enough but I like more headroom plus the G series is Gold efficiency and fully modular, meaning the cables plug in for easy swapping the box just in case.   Plus better warranty, although I’m not sure what the 600watt is.

Hi Beloit911,

I see you have the badge so does that mean that you already placed your order?
If you have, congratulations and welcome to DS.Big%20Smile

The Vanquish line is pretty much ready to go so the processing/shipping should be short and you should be enjoying it soon.Awesome

As to thoughts, I try to avoid them.LOL Either get a headache or in trouble when I have them.

Indeed i have ordered. However they were out of stock on the gtx 1080... so i'm either waiting on it or going to a 1080ti. obviously a larger power supply needed then though.

Great Build !!

Beastly Parts always make for a Beastly system.

I know parts are parts but there is just something
special about a Digital Storm Build. I have purchased
from two other suppliers and there really is no comparison.

You will see. You will be happy..


Just remember to post the review with photo's
