I'm currently in the market for a new computer and would like to get some advice on good ones to buy, where to buy from etc. My current price range is $600. The computer is going to be multi-media while also being able to play games, however I do not want it to be solely a gaming computer. The video games I will be playing do not have amazing graphics and thus I do not really need a great video card. In a nut shell, I would like a fast, rather powerful computer to be able to play simple games like WoW and Minecraft, while also being able to run Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop well. I have found a few that look alright and fit my price range and would like you guys to take a look and tell me what you think. I would appreciate any suggestions you have to offer.
