As my old desktop is getting rather old and sluggish, I want to get a new one. The target is cost is 500 to 700 USD, and the most taxing uses will be somewhat intensive modelling applications ( high resolution 3DS Max/ZBrush scenes, nothing too crazy) and ideally new games (largely single player RPG's and some multiplayer FPS), highest settings not necessarily mandatory.
If anyone has suggestions for different parts that would increase the cost/performance ratio, that would be awesome.
