Well I can tell you one thing...get a MAC. Macs are way better with working with pictures and digital media than windows. At least from my experience...and Im a graphic designer.

Hi ,esrever
thanks for your reply. Problem is - I have tried working with macs - but i find it a litle difficult (diffrent) as I am so used to windows. I know macs are used in the industry for graphic design etc, but to be honest I think I would prefer to stay with windows.

if its video editing you want to do then like esrever says a MAC is your best option, but since you want to stick with windows i belive one of the best systems you could get would have to be a Socket 939 Amd Opteron System but it wont come cheap
