I've come out with the following

Biostar G41-M7-FE Intel Core 2 duo E7500 or Biostar A780LE, AMD athlon II X4 (quad core) 630
PC 6400 kingston ram 1GBX2
Hitachi HD 500G sata
LG DVDRW 22X sata
Cooler master extreme 480Watts
Cooler master Elite 310
Windows 7 Ultimate

Say if for mutlitasking like doing photoshop or video editing, should one choose the later as in quad core?

I would go with the quad core over the dual core. These days, you can never have enough cores, especially with photo or video editing. And because I'm an AMD fan boy. :D

What is the video, gonna use the onboard?

The person has budget and never mention getting a graphic card, so yes, would be using the onboard and hopefully there won't be any issue when watching movie or doing photo editing, btw tks for the reply :)

If they already have the software for the photo editing, then you should be able to look at the system requirements to see if the onboard will work.
