Looking to get a new computer and spend ONLY arountd $600-800. I am wondering what computer system people would recommend. I only play "call of duty" as a treat, but mainly use the computer for adobe photoshop light photo editing.

Any advice on a system out there to consider (make, model, brand) OR minimum video card or motherboard requirements would be helpful! I am a novice, so be nice. Thank you!!

That i5 system will do you far better for your Photoshop work, since it has stronger single threaded ability
