I'm looking for a PC that can handle video editing, with high performance processor (i7 would be nice) and enough memory to, say, have After Effects, iTunes, Photoshop, and Firefox running smoothly at the same time. Basically just enough power to render video quickly and perform other tasks simultaneously (without slowing down of course). I'm not a genius when it comes to bus speed, cache, memory etc., so I don't really know what will be needed and what will be overkill. I have a 22" Samsung T220 monitor (720p) that I would like to watch HD movies/shows on, but I'm not sure what's the best route to do so. Everything is so expensive with this HD garbage =) Price around 700-900 preferably. Thanks!
