Depends on whether you build/maintain it your self or have it made by the store.
Also the amount of money you want to invest in it.

I reckon you live somewhere in the States and want to do it yourself?
You could check for example: http://www.newegg.com or http://www.ocztechnology.com/
Or at least check the prices of the separate parts and buy them where they are cheapest and construct the machine yourself.

If you don't (want to) build/maintain it yourself, you can just check with Dell/HP, or the likes.
If money is not a problem you could try Alienware (now also a Dell-subsidiary).

For reviews, check:
http://www.tomshardware.com, http://www.anandtech.com/ or the likes.

Good luck in getting your new rig.

I knew you were having computer problems, but it is fun to get a new one. And then more time for more modding ;)

You can get an alienware for that price range if that is what you want.

I would recommend building your own and maybe look at this article for ideas on what parts to buy: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,2 ... 245,00.asp That one is $1400 plus the accessories which you may already have. You can change any of the parts to fit your budget and objectives better.

If you don't want to build your own, I would probably recommend a Dell XPS or Dell Alienware system.

Mostly i build my own PC's. Full choice of parts. Plus i don't really need a neon enabled hyper-cooled with a transparant left side. The money i saved (bought a coolermaster) was spend on a better monitor.

I think the monitor is really one of the most important parts of a complete pc. It will last longer than most parts. And to really enjoy the riches a brand-new graphics card has, the monitor actually delivers.
