Building a Computer?

[Mcbard]

You should be able to put together a machine that can handle this for around $1,000. Just make sure you get a LOT of memory, and a pretty decent graphics card/processor. I would also probably pick up an SSD to load the OS/programs and work with, especially if you plan on doing any video editing from your local HD.

Pre-built machines are just a rip off. You can generally build a far superior system to what you would buy pre-built for a lot cheaper.

P.S. To the poster above me: What the hell is with that annoying signature??

This x 1000

also, keep in mind the cost of the OS if you are planning on using Windows expect to pay a few hundred for it and the SSD is a few hundred as well for a decently sized drive. You will probably end up getting a HDD along with it to store stuff because SSDs are rather small these days. If you are hoping to do a dual PCIe video card setup keep in mind the price for two cards (and go with NVIDIA not ATI, I've had so many issues with them over the years)

I too have a problem with the signature. I'm not sure why it exist or why it's being used, but every time I see it I rage inside my head.
