You could easily spend 5-600 dollars (no monitor) and run them pretty comfortably. To run them at pretty much peak performance, think upwards of 1100. Then to really run them, a system like this guy speced, at 1500. As you pay more and more, the increase in performance is less and less. Basically, when i buy tech stuff, i try to get stuff that is just over the first big bump in performance. After that, you are just spending your money on getting newer stuff. Personally, i dont think you should ever buy anything close to top of the line. You can always run any software on middling computers, you just need to upgrade more often, but it still comes out cheaper if you stay away from top end stuff.
