Budget:
[1600]but willing to go up a bit.

Expectations:
[Just want a long lasting computer that runs fast that I could do work on it in the future.]

Usage:
[Primarily for gaming games as minecraft, LoL, Sc2 and also be available to do my school work on. Also maybe even stream]

Special Needs:
[Don't have any at the moment but will take advice]

Hey everyone I have been looking around to buy my first desktop and came to the conclusion that why not get a custom pc. While searching through the rival companies I noticed DS was the best by far. I will take any suggestions you have but I really like the virtue and vanquish. I will admit I am pretty much am a newb so any suggestion will be taken happily.

To get you in on budget I went with a second tier Virtue system and brought the graphics card down one notch. The config is: 849577. With shipping it might go a bit over but it should be pretty close.

Take a look.
