Rendering machine under $1200

[craigwojo]

Hi everyone,

Been looking through the post and was wonder what should I buy to get the maximum rendering for Photoshop, CorelDraw and Vue software? The price does not include the monitor or the hard drive(s).
Recommended motherboard, CPU(s) to start.

Thank you,
Craig

What is your pricepoint, to start? $500? $5000?

I'm looking to purchase for under $1200.

If you have a microcenter I would go 930 and heavily overclock it.... 4.2 minimum. No need to spend extra cash for a stupid dual socket setup for a simple render machine.
