Goal: I need a system capable of modern-day multitasking. What I mean by this is playing an HD video on YouTube on the background as I work with hi-res textures in Photoshop. Play Blu-ray in full HD and browse the internet at the same time and maintain low CPU/memory usage. I already do this on a Sempron built with 2gb memory and my memory usually rests at 50% while the CPU is up at 90% so I know I'll be okay with only 2gb of ram. And that's also the reason I'm not going out all with the parts. I'm not going to do gaming...just simple everyday multitasking. And at $450 I'm sure I'm doing better than retail systems.
I need something that won't require an upgrade anytime soon. A standard for today's needs. And I know I don't need more than 2gb of ram or a powerful graphics card when I won't make use of them to add the extra expense so please no comment on that.
