This PC is for heavy applications like Photoshop, Pagemaker,Autocad, Video Editing, Visual Studio.Net, and other heavy applications. I currently have Q6600 with Gigabyte mother board with 4gb of ram, its good but not quite satisfied with it.

The Budget is around 800$ for processor ,mother board and ram.

For the applications listed, I think I would suggest one of the varieties of P6T, the 920, and as much RAM as you can afford to put in afterwards!

I should also concentrate on getting a larger amount of RAM over the more expensive but faster stuff.
