I have put together a configuration that I would appreciate some of you more advanced guru's looking over to see if this would work out for me.
I will be mostly doing photo/video composition, some music work, digitization of various items ie: records, slides, etc. I might get into some game playing, but right now that is not a high priority. I am looking at a budget of $3000-3500. The monitor is listed in the configuration and is a 24.6" Samsung. The configuration is: 630049. Thanks for your help! Guitarman

get your ms office and etc from newegg. they are out of the haf x here you need to order it from newegg and have it shipped to ds so they can use it for your config. click here to order You can ask DS to order it for you from newegg but the cost will endup being $50 more. if you are a prime member of amazon, you can have it shipped for free from amazon.
