Premiere The best video editor for AVCHD no doubt is Premiere pro CS5.5. With Nvidia cards it supports CUDA, so the AVCHD editing is accelerated with the Mercury playback engine. Try out the trial from Adobe's site. http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere.html

This. You should be able to make at least $200 more in less than a month.

Here, for $90 more than your max budget, you could have a computer that could play SC2 on Extreme, instead of Low. Wouldn't that be worth it? Yes, building a computer for your outlandishly low budget is possibly, but like the computer you linked, it's going to be absolutely terrible. Don't be...

That motherboard is for Intel chips :P Try this one, Asrock AM2 and this ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820178164 To tool, honestly, it's not really worth it to buy a computer with so little money. Save up atleast $200 more.

If your motherboard only has PCI-E 1.1. A PCI-E 2.0 card will still work. PCI-E 2.0 is just a newer revision, but any PCI-E card will work with any PCI-E slot. But your motherboard only has PCI, which is old and slow.

I am going to build a new computer this summer and I was wondering if any of you had recommendations for parts. The budget is $2000. I am most likely getting an i7 and the CoolerMaster Haf X for the case.

All the computers are so expensive, yet no aftermarket cooling? You should definitely add some aftermarket air coolers to the build lists. Like the Prolimatech Megahalems or the Noctua NH-D14.

Honestly guys.... You guys should just go buy new MP3 players. Those MP3 players are only worth about $10 and you could get another one that is much better. Here is a cheap one if that's what you are looking for. Coby MP3 Player If you want one that is cheaper just check on ebay.

The fan is meant to run constantly The fan in your computer is meant to run constantly. If you have a laptop then the fan probably will change speed depending on how hot your computer is. If the fan is decent quality then it will not "wear out". Don't worry, its better to keep your computer...

All may not be lost While I realized you have "solved" the issue, you may be able to fix your graphics card. After time some of the soldered connections get stressed and break. Many people have fixed their graphics cards by taking of the cooler and any plastic parts that would melt, and putting...
