greenknight Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Don't diss the Duron, I'm runnin' one! Seriously, they are a good value, and newer ones are a lot faster than my old Spitfire. Quote

Capturing/editing video is indeed CPU intensive, but will that be primarily what you will be doing, or will you be doing a broad range of tasks? Also, how much cash do you have to work with? Are you getting all new parts, or keeping some old ones? I've built a couple computers recently in a couple different price ranges, so if you'd like, I can send you the spec sheets and prices, and you can mix-and-match components. Quote
