Buying a New PC soon.. need advice

    Hi,
    Im looking into getting a new machine in the next month or so. All of my old PCs i've 'built' on the dell site and am now looking at HP and a few other manufacturers.

    Requirements:
    Will be using machine for 3ds Max and photoshop, with a bit of flight sim on the side, so i'll need-
    Quad Core
    Max ram
    512Mb graphics card minimum, maybe even 1024?
    500Gb-1 Tb Hard drive.

    If possible, I'd like it to have HD out (i assume that is a graphics card requirement/feature?) and would like TV tuner + remote, but can add this later.

    Basically with that in mind i've found the hp m9200.

    I suppose what I really want here is advice on that machine in particular or a similar machine with sameish spec? Also, I know PC World can be pricey for peripherals, but are they good value on desktops? If not, can anyone recommend a HP stockist. And finally, if anyone has a similar setup or uses their comp for the same sort reasons (3D CAD) can they offer any advice on what to look for.

    Thanks
