DirectX 9 or 10 compatible graphics and sound These are actually system requirements for the editor I want(AVID) but I dont really know much about differences between hardware parts. Wrong forum website yes, but maybe there are some killer computer geeks on here I am unaware of ??

What are you building the computer for? Gaming I'm assuming?
