I have a 6yr old AMD system.........I need an upgrade!:idea:

What I want 2 do: surf net, edit in photoshop, watch VDO, AND PLAY GAMES HOW FAR POSSIBLE IN MY 36K BUDGET!:lol:

PLZ suggest me what to buy........plz try to give at least 2-3 options, bcoz I live in a small town & everything is not available here!:sad:


PLZ suggest: Motherboard, Monitor (min 19", HD if possible), CPU, GPU, RAM (4GB DDR3???), COOL CABINET & power supply, KEYBOARD & MOUSE (NEED NO WIRELESS), HDD (320 GB ENOUGH), have a DVD writer, No need of speakers.....have I missed something? PLZ include that tooo!!!

PLZ PLZ PLZ give me some quick suggestion. I have a week to discuss. I don't want to depend blindly on my vendor!

Regards
Hirak Sarkar:razz:

BTW: How wild can I go in laptop section with this budget??!?!?;-) (just want 2 know!)
