I'm looking to buy a pre-built system (or if the price is dramatic different i guess I could build one) I plan to use a dual monitor setup (maybe not eyefinity just two monitors) and would you it for gaming, using photoshop and video editting, so basically decent all round computer.
Budget is around 1.5k but i can probably stretch more if the price is justifiable, but ofc cheaper the better as i can spend it on other things.
Currently I'm stuck between:

So what do you guys think? I'd like it to be a fairly noticeable jump from my current system which is windows XP 2gb ram, 8800 duo core, but would prefer not to build one (1. Because i haven't built a computer before and don't wanna ruin it, and 2. I wouldn't know what pieces fit into a case)
