We used a calibrated meter to measure the power at the wall. No monitors were factored into the readings. The system power drain was measured in the following states:
Idle: when resting at the desktop.
Gaming Load: running the ‘combined’ test in 3dMark 11. Processor and graphics card are stressed.
The PCSpecialist Vanquish Z11 System doesn't demand that much power for a high performance gaming system. When idle it consumes 67 watts of power and this rises to 230 watts under gaming load.
I built a system for the same price. Very closely matched actually, except my cable routing is a mess.
They seem a good company.
Never even seen that case before, looks very aggressive. I like it.
Seems like a good well balanced system, only thing I would change would be the cooler. get the H60 and overclock it to 4.7 or 4.8. only £30 more.
GOod company, my friend bought the last system Kitguru reviewed from them and he loves it. this looks good too.
this isnt available on their site I looked everywhere for this system as there finance options are really great. Pay within a year and pay Zero interest.
Vhero, its a special system deal – link is in the conclusion page – https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/reviews/
I have this case it has great cooling and is very quiet even though it has five fans as standard
