Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: Next 2-3 weeks

Budget Range: £1,000

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Adobe system (Photoshop and Illustrator)

Are you buying a monitor: Yes

Your Monitor Resolution: I need 1920x1080 with this system.

Additional Comments: This is a PC for my church, which does some design work. They're currently using a laptop, which tends to be incredibly slow and/or crash with the Adobe software. I've been asked to build a new system...I'm more familiar with gaming systems, so wanted to run the build past the community for those who are more familiar with design PCs to comment.

Here's what I'm thinking of getting; the total is £977.65
