Vanquish 2 Level 4 Questions

Hi, I just registered to the forums. (Wasn't sure where this topic should go so I put it in general discussion :P) I have been recently looking for a (relatively) cheap gaming PC, that would still run well enough to play almost any game at 1080p. I have looked at other sites but their reviews of them using cheap parts and poor costumer service scared me off of their websites. Then I found this website and have been really excited to buy the "Vanquish 2 Level 4" as my first real gaming PC! And will most likely be purchasing it within the next month! :D

I just wanted to say hi, and say that from what I read on the forums the community is awesome (even seeing admins reply to topics all the time).

I do have a couple of questions, are you able to hook up more than one monitor to the computer? And what service do they use to ship the computers to the customer? (For ground delivery). Also my biggest fear, do computers usually always arrive safely after being handled by the delivery company?

Thanks in advance for answering my questions! I look forward to buying a computer from you guys soon!

It seems Ariktu answered the shipping questions.

In regards to the dual-monitors, yes. The Lv. 4's GTX 770 has two DVI, one HDMI and one DisplayPort for multi-monitor use.

Thanks for all your answers!
I just have a few more questions (lol).. I am probably going to get the gaming keyboard and mouse that they offer for I think 40 dollars with the computer, and I just wanted to know if anyone has ordered these what their experiences were. Also, I would assume they are shipped in separate boxes is there an additional shipping cost? Lastly, I know it takes 3 days for them to ship it out, but after that how long does it take to arrive at your door? Not that I impatient, just curious. :P

Thanks again!

I have the mouse/keyboard option. It was supposed to be boxed with the machine, but since I picked it up (instead of shipping) it was separate... which was fine. I do believe the shipping is the same either way... we're talking about 2#s maybe in weight. You'd have to get Alex or someone in shipping to give you exact figures.

The mouse and keyboard bundle that you can buy are not specifically gaming peripherals. Logitech standard k200 keyboard and mouse. Good all around generics and, as I needed them for the new machine, I thought I'd get them at the same time as purchase. I have no problems, although users with larger hands that use the 'palm' grip may find the mouse a bit small. (I'm a claw person, so it's size really doesn't bother me.)

As for shipping, ground, with ordering let's use the example of you ordering on Monday, the 1st of whenever. You order on day one and if everything checks out with the bean counters, your order heads straight to the floor. They have 3 days to test your preconfigured rig. They've built thousands of the Vanquishes and so they already have parts and pieces just to put them in the case.

After the testing, your machine will ship 72 hours later, probably Wednesday the 3rd of whenever. Now, it's down to where you live. If you live in California or a bordering state you can expect it in about 3 days. Midwest or Central region: 5 days. East coast as many as 7 days.

Notice these are BUSINESS days, not everyday. If you live in California and you order it on Monday the 1st, you should get it the next Monday, the 8th. If you live in NY, it should arrive around Monday the 15th. Plan accordingly for locations in between.

Please note these are HUGE generalities and should in no way be taken as gospel truth.

Hope that info helps you. Looking forward to welcoming you to the DS family.

Cheers

Ah... Thanks for the clarification... I read "$40 bundle" and I assumed you meant the baby version like mine.  No worries.
