Desktop Replacement Selection

[imusorka]

Budget: ~$1,000

Screen: >15" matte IPS

Storage: ~200 GB SSD

Software: Photoshop, InDesign, Office

Games: F1 2011, DiRT, StarCraft II

Brands: Sony, [strike]Toshiba[/strike] (experience)

Portability and battery life are irrelevant. FHD screen and optical drive are not required. Matte IPS panel and SSD are very desirable but may not be possible with this budget.

I've also thought about waiting until after Ivy Bridge hits the market but it looks to be delayed now. Anyway, any advice would be highly appreciated.
