I need a gaming pc that can at least run gta 5 and fallout 4 on max settings. I can accept pre-built or custom made, although I'm leaning towards pre build since this will be my first pc. I was wondering if the digital storm vanquish level 1 pre build model could handle these games. If you could find anything cheaper that would be greatly appreciated.
 
A little over budget, but kept the GTX 970 and the SSD...
