I think a lot of us would love a newegg in our countries but for now we will have to do without it.Does Newegg.com ship internationally?

Newegg.com does not ship internationally. We ship within the United States and to Puerto Rico and APO/FPO addresses only.
It's even worse than that, they also want you to pay using a credit card or bank from within the USA. How moronic is that? I once tried to order from them, had an USA address to ship to, but they did not want my money, because my Visa card was issued outside the USA. Only American company I have ever encountered that refused to accept my money.
Thanks to the other comments and advice too.... appreciated. I was once in Munchen and I was buying Whisky, or at least planning to but couldn't do so unless my card was issued in Bavaria. Being a German card wasn't good enough.... had to be Bavarian German. Makes you wonder....
Sorry, have not gotten round to it yet, hopefully soon. Hope you are not in to big of a rush.
Hehe, I reckon a lot of Bavarians don't consider themselves to be German. This one guy that lives here is quite adamant that he's Bavarian & not German
The shipping is not the problem (plenty of remailers for that), the thing is they don't accept foreign cards, you need to have one from an american bank And yes, i know people who went and opened one just for that, get a savings account with visa debit card or something.
I find it simpler to purchase parts in Amazon, just make sure your remailer and your seller are not in the same State... horrible taxes.
Now what the OP needs can be done quite cheaply. It appears to be image processing/editing, so lets throw some nice 4g+ of value ram and a modern processor. I'm betting something ivybridge or sandybridge will do just fine, no games no need for discrete card.
So my advise would be:
An I5 with an intel board, I7 or I3 depending on budget, at least 4g of ram, perhaps 8g depending on budget.
Example:
MB H67 90$ http://www.amazon.com/Intel-Desktop-...dp/B004Q7JRJI/
CPU I5 200$ http://www.amazon.com/Intel-i5-2500K...dp/B004EBUXHQ/
RAM 8g 37$ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003N8GVUY/
i5-2500, Asus p8p67le, 8g ddr3, gtx460. Eeepc 701 4g surf.
