Okay so I want to get the VANQUISH 7 - Level 1 and I cant find anything of it online so I got a few questions. Does it look like what it looks like in the pictures in the website or is that a different pc.And is it worth the 700$?

The level 1 doesn't look exactly like the picture. It doesn't have the graphics card and the cpu cooler is different. The picture is more representative of the level 3 and 4. I believe it does have the blue LED fans. Whether its worth $700 depends on what you expect for gaming, if that's the usage. It is an entry level gaming pc that will play a lot of games on medium to high settings on a 1080p monitor. Higher demanding games would need a higher level to play with decent frames. The level 1 does have the expansion slot to easily add a gtx 1060 for example, for much better gaming.  |

Yes, unless they change it at the last moment because of shortages. That does not happen very often at all.
I believe it’s the Corsair 460x with added 3 blue fans in the front.

My pleasure.
I have a Lumos , actually a Corsair 570x, with 8700k cpu, cooled with CorsairH100, gtx 1080 graphics card and a Samsung 960 Pro m.2 drive for OS and several games. A little pricey but it keeps me off the streets. Those games should run very good on a 1080p screen. |

The Vanquish line is a very good system with good parts throughout and provides an excellent budget custom build that is easily upgraded.

If you intend to push your video beyond 1080p (monitor resolution) you might want to explore starting with a stronger system overall. If good performance at 1080p is your goal, you would not need to go beyond a GTX 1060 6GB with a Vanquish 1 as your platform, for very strong performance at high settings. |

Like Cretae states, maybe a GTX 1080 is a bit overkill and everything will play the same with a GTX 1060 6GB on a 1080p monitor. Let us know how it goes.

Just to chime in with some recent experience....a GT X 1060 is very similar in gaming to a GTX 970. I had, still have in my older box, a GTX 970 that was starting to show its age with newer, all features turned on gaming. Witcher with Hairworks was a perfect example of very jittery frames. Had to turn it off. Other games had issues. That said, the GTX 970 and more recent GTX 1060, which is about 10% better, will play great. But I would go with a GTX 1070 if the budget allows. Just me.
