I want to program, model stuff. Use programs like PS, Sony Vegas Pro, C4D, Adobe AE and to be able to vonnect my Wacom tablet. If it could launch league aswell that would be great.

I heard iMac's are great for those kind of things. I've never got the chance to  try it myself though.

Don't use a mac if you want to get into using lots of different programs... Especially a lot of modelling programs are not compatible and you're gonna have issues transferring your files/converting files alot! I use lots of different modelling, drawing, audio and game engine programs, and lots of them fuck up with apple, speaking from my own experience.
If you just stick with designing (graphics), then a mac is perfect, but modelling I wouldn't recommend it.

If you get a laptop, i recommend lenovo, if you are going for a desktop PC, then get one with enough RAM (4-8gig) and standalone videocard (not integrated!) to support those programs, as they're gonna need that!

8 GB RAM for a desktop PC will be pretty good enough. I would suggest going for 16 GB though. Depends on your budget and how you plan to run (eg. Multitasking at the same time).
