Hi All,
I am building a computer primarily for editing pictures with Photoshop. What would be a good configuration of mobo/cpr/ram? I will use AMD. Should I go for 400fsb, ddr 400? Any help would be appreciated as I am new to computing.

At least 1gb of ram, say a 2.4c p4. Not sure on motherboard, but thats what Id have for just PS

Well for AMD you want to get a nForce2 chipset motherboard. There are tons of great nForce2 motherboards, however, if I had to pick I would go with Abit's NF7-S. Put a 2500+ Barton in that and two name brand (Corsair) 512MB DDR PC3200 and your set. You could also use pc2700 if your not ever going to O/C but its just a few bucks anyway.
