    Im interested to see what sort of rigs (esp. PC's) people are using for multimedia, particularly those working with CS4.

    So whats your setup, and are you happy with its performance?

    using AE 7 Pro, CS3 Premiere Pro, Avid Liquid, Particle illusion. For the most part it's fine. Heavy rendering (colour correction can take a while - if you're using one of the movie looks plugins. Need a better faster graphics card, and as mentioned a full upgrade on the processor. All and All I get by - the upgrade would get me by faster:)
