Q: Best PowerMac G5 spec for me..? (CPU, GPU, PSU, RAM, HDD, etc)

Hi

 

I want to buy a PowerMac G5 but am stuck on which model to try and buy off eBay. I want to buy a PowerMac in the short term whilst i save for a Mac Pro - so that all i need to do is swap the tower (..ish)

 

I am a 16 yr old student and use the following porgrams;

 

Adobe Photoshop CS3/4

Adobe Illustrator "

Adobe After Effects "

Aobe InDesign

Final Cut Pro

Microsoft Office / iWork

 

Minecraft

 

I dont want to buy the Quad-core becuase as i said i am trying not to spend too much and they are going for quite a lot. I want to upgrade and I dont mind buying faulty

 

So what I'd like to know is suggestions for;

 

-CPU

-Graphics card - nVidia Quadro FX 4500 ..?? (must be able to run dual cinema diplays)

-PSU

And the best upgrades for suggested model eg. max ram etc.

 

I am not new to macs but have recently been using a PC due to financial restraints and want to revert back

 

Many Thanks ahead,

 

I live in the UK and would rather not import things from the US as i have been stung by UK customs before
