Hello everybody,

I'm trying to assemble a PC for Beginner - Intermediate level graphic designing..
Apps used regularly would be ones like 3ds max, maya, flash, photoshop etc..
My budget is around 30000/-

So far, this is the best config i got.. (without Graphics card)

-C2D E4600 2.4GHz
-2 GB RAM
-MSI 945GCM7 mobo
-350 GB HDD
-17" TFT Monitor
-DVD Writer

Cost is approx Rs. 27000/-


I dont know how good the above config is for graphic designing and multimedia purposes.. but it's for a beginner, so i dont really need anything too sophisticated.. yet..(!)
Please let me know if this config is good enough, or if i should go for something else..

Thanks in advance..

Do not buy new graphics card now. Once ATI HD4850 and HD4870 are released, get one of these cards and use it in hybrid crossfire mode.
