Should I even bother? I haven't done it in years. I went a few years way back when where I was able to build something that blew anything Dell offered out of the water as far as bang for buck went. That with a good, clean, adware free OS install it was hard to beat. But many years have gone by now and I have no idea where to start.

My daughter needs something to run Adobe After Effects on. I figure building it with her won't hurt either. She's 12. What say ye?

If someone can point me in the direction of a case, motherboard, processor combo, I can probably figure out there rest from there. I think she's gonna need a pretty good video card too.

Adobe After Effects Requirements:

Intel Core2 Duo or AMD Phenom II processor with 64-bit support.
Microsoft Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (64 bit), or Windows 8.1 (64 bit)
8 GB of RAM (16 GB recommended)
5 GB of available hard-disk space; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on removable flash storage devices)
