Hello everyone, I'm looking to buy a gaming computer. I'd like it to have warranty, and be set up by a good company who knows their stuff, so I don't break anything.
I will use this computer mainly for gaming, which I hope to max out settings with any game that I play. I have a 2k budget, but no idea what build/customization to buy. Can anyone help me? thanks so much I also photoshop some, movies are a bit one. Also I need peripherals (monitor, mouse, and keyboard) inside the budget as well, |

Hi pman3255... Welcome to the forums. If your 2K budget includes the monitor , etc then I would look at the prebuilds. The ODE lvl 1 at $1499 will give you great bang for the buck.. It's gtx 670 will max out alot of games on a 23" 1920x1080 monitor but not all. Some of the heavier shooters are real tough on any single card.
We could also show you a custom build, but it would be more $$ for about the same performance. DS makes the ODE, Marauder, Bolt pre built systems very appealing, to satisfy most, and to ship them to you quicker. Good Luck. |

Hey pman, I recently purchased a computer from digital storm at around the same budget as yourself. I went with the ODE lvl 2, and I am more than happy with it and I would highly recommend the ODE. Check it out. It runs a single GTX670 and I tend to max out most games, but as bpratt22 said, not all. It's an amazing computer nonetheless, and the power of the i7 3770k CPU is incredible. Another great computer to look into is the Epoch, but that is mostly if you know what exact components you want, as it does have customization options whereas the ODE does not. If you were to go with the ODE, and possibly one of the lower models such the level 2, I would recommend you call digital storm and ask if it's possible for you to get the Sabertooth Z77 Mobo instead of the default motherboard. Specifically due to the fact that if you ever want to do some upgrades in the future by yourself, the Sabertooth Z77 supports SLI(dual video cards) unlike the P877-V LX.
