What kinda apps you gonna be running? photoshop?

 

[charles624]

Photoshop, quarkxpress, dreamweaver, vegas all the programs in this category.

I also want gaming, like call of duty 4, and the others are all old games so no worries

Doesn't matter if it goes a bit over budjet

Alright, how much hdd space u need? In that budget you could prolly fit 1-2TB. Os also needed i presume?

 

[charles624]

I need an OS, preferably vista even if it sucks

For the hard drive I would need a 1 TB in the computer since i already have a 1 TB external Hdd
