Been looking for a good i7 system lately and have come across the Ultima Vanquish which is on offer at the moment. Can anyone comment on it and say whether its a good buy and any good? I was thinking of getting it with the Antec 902 case, Windows Vista 64Bit Premium with the Windows 7 voucher and maybe only the 4850 as i don't want to go mental with the GPU just yet with DX11 out soon. My main concern is just getting a good oc'ed cpu that will last me a good while, would this i7 do it?

Also do you think overclockers would be able to swap the 1TB 16mb cache HDD out for a 500GB 32mb cache HDD? Would just like to know as i don't need the extra space but would like the extra cache.

Any comments or advice will be much appreciated :) Thanks
 
Ok thanks for the replies, i've sent them a web note and will just have to call and amend the order when i've ordered :) Any idea if this is a good buy though and will last a good two or three years? I'm hoping it will be but i just need some more experienced opinions.

Thanks
 
When exactly is dx11 out?
People keep iterating that its 'out soon'
Will vista have a windows update to make it dx11 compatible, or will we have to await windows7 which at earliest will be oct 22nd for proper installations?

Yep it will be on vista, i'm just thinking about the hardware. Having said that the dx11 release hardware might even be worth a miss until drivers, etc get ironed out and not forgetting untill dx11 actually becomes untilised in games.
