Hardware recommendations for PC used for graphics design

by megtek . Updated 19 years, 5 months ago

Hi. I have been so far out of the hardware loop for a number of years now. I just got a new job and have been asked to build a computer for me to use. The job will involve doing graphics design using Photoshop, Illustrator, etc…as well as 3D graphics. Also – video capturing from a video camera to convert to video files that can be played on a PC. I am told by some people that I will need 2 monitors. Why? Also – what kind of video card would I need? I know I will need a large hard drive, and alot of memory – 2 GB enough? But what else? I need to be sure I get what I need, but I am so afraid that I will overkill it and look bad. ANy recommendations? Thanks in advance.
