PCSpecialist Vanquish 230X Review

After a delayed release from late 2012 to March 2013, the game received much anticipation and hype. Tomb Raider received much acclaim from critics, who praised the graphics, the gameplay and Camilla Luddington’s performance as Lara with many critics agreeing that the game is a solid and much needed reboot of the franchise. Much criticism went to the addition of the multiplayer which many felt was unnecessary. Tomb Raider went on to sell one million copies in forty-eight hours of its release, and has sold 3.4 million copies worldwide so far.

  1. “Intel Core i5-4670K @ 4.2GHz
    16GB Kingston HyperX BEAST @ 2400MHz
    ASUS Z87-A Motherboard
    120GB Kingston HyperX 3K SSD
    1TB SATA III 6Gb/s HDD
    3GB AMD Radeon 280X Graphics
    CoolerMaster Seidon 120M Liquid Cooler
    Corsair TX650M Modular PSU
    Corsair 230T Case (NEW!)
    Windows 8.1 64bit
    3 Year Warranty”

    So you need expensive 2400Mhz ram now ? you need 16GB? no need for the SSD, use extra money and get a new PSU 850W and an extra 290x =P

  2. Very impressive, just ordered one for my son 🙂

  3. Gareth – seriously. get a clue. You wouldn’t need a 850W PSU for a 290X, and who wants a reference 290X that sounds like a helicopter anyway.

    16GB of RAM is futureproof for a few years and an SSD is the best thing you can add into a system. Amazing you would sacrifice all those good things, for an ultra loud video card and a power supply you dont need.

  4. wer can i buy a gaming cpu? wer can i contak u guys?

  5. A half decent PSU to run all that expensive kit – finally. Sick of seeing £1000 PCs with crappy Corsair CXs.

  6. Hugely impressive specification for the money, miles ahead of anything else pre-built on the market at this time. Ordered mine yesterday, cheers for the heads-up!
