Adobe Animate CC
Aptly named, this animation software handles 2d animations of all sorts, from cartoons, video game sprites, and more.
The following Systems meet the system requirements set by Adobe Animate CC's developers. There are no performance standards defining how well a recommended system should perform (some developpers overestimate them, others can be a bit optimistic), but I would expect those systems to handle anything easily but the most painstakingly complex tasks.
The following will be great for Adobe Animate CC. prices range from $580.00 to $1040.00, accessories included.
Want a simple solution? Here are a few pre-built Systems which should do the trick.

Wonder why you get better systems than requested?
That's because TekAdvisor limits results based on a maximum price rather than a maximum performance. For instance: If 3-stars or even 5-stars systems are available in the same price range as 1-star options, I'm pretty sure you should consider the better-performing options as well.
