looking for a new desktop for editing and my wifes school work. only plan to run editing programs and microsoft office as far as software is concerned. </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>how does this look? i was going to build my own but its not feasible right now</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>i dont know much about computers. i do plan to pick up 2 500gb external hard drives to store my stuff on so the computer wont be clogged with tons of photos. </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>i also did a little research and learned the phenom II has cache and it better for multitasking or stuff like i would be doing as oppossed to the Athlons. I'd like to stick with an AMD processor as they are more in my price range oppossed to the I's.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>input welcome. would like to stay close to this price without monitor. also monitor suggestions welcome in the $250 range <img src="http://thephotoforum.com/forum/images/smilies/happyblush.gif" border="0" alt="" title="blushing" smilieid="122" class="inlineimg" /></p>
