Need suggestions on a new build system (not for gaming)

Hi,

I am going to build a new home computer and would like to hear some suggestions from you guys.

Functions:
1. Graphics/Video editing (Not professional, just for picture and video I take), including burning image/video clips to CD/DVD
2. Watch TV/DVD
3. Word processing/Word/Excel/PPT
4. No or seldom gaming

I wonder if I can build a system under $1,500 or even lower including a good monitor (good color appearance, bright, sharp). Please give me some input. Thanks.

Might have done overkill on the PSU, but it is right now very affordable (This is a top quality PSU) and you never know when you might want to get more power consuming components in the future, so this is one aspect that is very easy to future proof on.

check this out, how about $500 for everything?
