If you can hold off a bit, I’d wait for the quad-cored Intel chips due out later this year. They will be by far the best content creation chip available. If you can’t wait but don’t want to break the bank, the Intel E6600 is probably your best bet, it constantly ties and occasionally defeats the AMD FX-62 in CC (E6600 = $320.00, FX-62 = $679.50).
If you want to build it yourself you can get just about everything you need for sub $1500.00 by shopping around at pricewatch.com or pricegrabber.com.
