Hi all, trying to put together a new build on the cheap for my girlfriend. She's studying interior design and needs something that can multi-task programs like AutoCAD Architecture, RevIt Architecture, Google Sketchup and Photoshop. Trying to keep it under $500 if possible. 1) What will you...

(Bumping this to reflect some tweaks made and what I have left to order) I just ordered the following early to avoid paying 9.5% TN sales tax, because this stuff will fit in a bag on the plane before I go back: CPU: Q6600 GPU: Sapphire HD 4830 Memory: G.SKILL 2x2gb DDR 800 HDD: WD 640gb...

Where did you hear this? I was going to place a Newegg order today but if there's any truth to it I'll be kicking myself tomorrow.
