Sorry to hear about your computer. Hope you didn't have too much invested in it. I'd personally recommend an AMD 64 processor over the Intel. You can still get a dual core AMD 64 that will be just as fast if not faster than the Intel chip. However the big problem is that your going to have a tough time finding a good somewhat high end computer that has a AMD 64 processor. Most computer makers will only use AMD on their entry level units. Your best bet might to get a custom computer made. You may be able to finance it depeding on where you get it from. If all else fails, go for the Dell. You'll generally get a good price, pretty good cust svc and enough computer muscle to get through the CAD and vid/pic editing. I've built computers before for friends and family so i do have some background in this. Let me know if you need any help.
