I need to upgrade my system to take on anything higher than what I'm using (Poser 8). I also use Silo 2 and am learning Photoshop CS5. I'm looking for suggestions for the best barebones PC systems to look for on a (low) budget. At this point, Pro 12 will be as high as I go for a while, and I've viewed the requirements for that program. Though I've been working on a comfy laptop, a desktop will probably be a better investment as far as updating.

Any suggestions for buying or avoiding are appreciated! This would be primarily for modeling and texturing realistic images; not really into animation or toons at this time.

Thank you!
