Hi Critcrying,

Welcome to the DS Forum.

The Vanquish II level 3 is a very good choice with a 690 GPU and a 4590 CPU. I don't like the pre-configured Eclipses because of the 400w Power Supply. That limits your upgrade possibilities.

You best choice, but $300 over your budget, is the Vanquish II Level 4. This gives you a better CPU, a better GPU, A SSD, upgraded CPU cooler and a SLI Motherboard. A lot of power for the money. If you are budget limited then go with the Vanquish II Level 3. Somewhere in the Vanquish or Eclipse systems you will find just what you need or want.

If your willing to go as high as 1500 I would go with the vanquish build 4 and opt for the alternative case they are offering now -K380 ALTERNATIVE- it looks cool and rugged. And you get a better GPU with it in the GTX 970
