Hi Atoken and welcome to the forums. 

For your budget, the only choices would be the Vanquish level 1 or level 2.   Both will give you good gaming on a 1080p monitor, not sure what you have.

If at all possible, I would get the level 2 for its quad core processor vs the dual core the the level 1.  The quad core will be better in pretty much anything you do.  Plus the level 2 does have a larger power supply for easier upgrading in the future.  It also has a SSD for much faster boot times and loading programs installed on it. 

If the level 1 is it, then it's gtx 960, same as in the level 2,  will game nice on the 1080p.    It'll still get things done, just not quite as fast.  

Unless you live in California, DS will not apply any taxes to the purchase but there is ground shipping.   $60 ish or so for shipping last I looked.

Hope this helps. Big%20Smile
