Hi all. I searched the threads briefly, but couldn't find a suggested rig for gaming as well as video/photo edit. I have a laptop I travel with, and my work gives me another laptop for bus trips. I haven't had a desktop in about 4 yrs now, and don't know what parts to get (my last video card was geforce 5600). Any help would be appreciated.
