Topic: Vanquish 2 Level 3 Posted: 09 Sep 2014 at 1:52pm |
||
Hello all!
I've been looking around for quite some time now for a new computer to game with since my laptop now is slowly dying and I need it for school. I am looking heavily into the Vanquish 2 level 3. I'm not much of a computer geek and don't know much at all about what all the specs mean, only from what I look up or read on. I play world of warcraft, cs:go and League of Legends, maybe some more steam games if this computer can handle it. I've never really had any gaming computer. I'm not a huge graphics freak either, usually I just play on the default graphics that the game starts up with. I guess my question is, will this computer be able to handle these games and other steam games with no problem? If this graphics card can handle it, I'd love to do dual monitors, but if not.. then one will do just fine. I won't be doing much on this computer other than gaming. Any advice or tips welcomed! Thanks so very much in advance! |

Hi Dexster... Welcome to the forums. The Vanquish lvl 3 with its gtx 760 will play most games on High with little problem. Max graphics with a lot of games is possible. You didn't mention the monitor, but this assumes a 1920x1080 screen or less. It'll certainly run dual monitor, but fps drop because of the added work.
Hope this helps and good luck. Edited by bprat22 - 09 Sep 2014 at 2:21pm |

Okay, awesome! I also have been seeing that the vanquish doesn't come with wifi. I've been looking around for a semi cheap one (less than $40) to do the job, but.. To be honest, I don't know what's good or bad. lol. Anyone recommend one?? Another question I have.. I see that DS is not open on weekends, does this mean that if I order it on Friday of this week, that they won't start to process and get my order ready to ship until monday, and probably won't be shipped out until wednesday of next week with the 72 hour turn around? Thanks again! |

Aye... I'm using the NetGear 300 and it's fantastic for my needs.
Also, the answer to your question is yes. DS is not open weekends. They will start your order as soon as the finances are finished. If you order on Friday, before they close and your order is confirmed, then Friday counts as Day 1 and you're looking at a Tuesday ship. If they have to wait for Monday to the payment to clear, then you're looking at a Wednesday ship. Hope that helps. |

Vanquish ships in 72 hours (max) from account(fund) verification.
If you ordered on Thursday (11th) and the account is verified, you will ship on Tuesday the 16th (DS is closed over the weekends) at the latest.
Give 5-7 days to get across country, you should have it on the 22nd or 23rd. Having said that, don't be surprised if it shows up Friday the 19th! (fingers crossed)
Also, if your forum account email matches your ordering email, you'll get the nice "Verified Customer" badge here. But you have to make sure that it's the exact same email (yes, case sensitive.)
Best of luck, welcome to the DS family and try to distract yourself while you wait.
It's gonna be GREAT!!
