Time for a new pc

[Tidy]

Ok, so here's one for everyone's 2 ents. My hd dumped and altho I have a new hd I am having probs with my old xp disk. I can resolve that issue but messing with it really made me think of how out dated my rig is. I am going to be getting a loan here within the month to build a new barn/garage/studio/mancave...lol Anyways, I think I am going to put a little extra in the budget to build a new rig to put in it as it is where my new home office will be. I will just let this one become the family rig since the woman is getting on the web more and my little girl is getting big enough to start learning computers.

I want something that will be able to suit the needs of graphics and video editing. I may game here and there but gaming is not a big concern with me wanting to do a new rig. I want to be able to use Adobe of course and I also want something that will be easy to transfer vid from a canon XL camcorder and be powerful enough for some amateur editing? So what would you peeps do/ build?
