Budget:
$1500

Expectations:
Witcher 3 performing as best as possible

Usage:
SFF is ideal for small space

Wanted to get recos on Eclipse level 2 vs. Vanquish 3 lvl 4

There seems to be no posts on the Eclipse in this section ... I currently am using an ------- x51 with a GTX 660 in it. I am looking forward to using Digital Storm - just need to find the right rig.

Thanks for your help

Hi meschert,

The only thing the Eclipse lvl 2 has going for it is the size of the case. It has a mini-ITX motherboard that doesn't support SLI if you should want to add a second GPU. It does come with a wireless AC card.

For a $100 more you will get a ATX SLI motherboard, double the size of the SSD, A 750w power supply and a better CPU cooler with the Vanquish lvl 4.

The two system will be similar in performance but the Vanquish lvl 4 is the best bang for the buck. Especially when it comes to expansion or upgrading. Good luck with your choice.

Frank

I'm really loving Witcher 3 on my older Vanquish 2 Ultimate. It has the GTX770 and barely breaks a sweat with the demands of the game at the higher settings.

I would recommend Vanquish 3 ultimate unless, like Frank says, you're really looking at a smaller rig.

I agree with Frank and Snaike.    The gtx 970 in either of them will play Witcher 3 on a single 1080p monitor or tv with no problem.

Good luck.
