Need Small Desktop for CS6: dual hard drives; Good Video Card; 12 - 16 GB ram
i have been searching smaller desktop since mine heavy , need able transport it. planning on upgrading cs6, need compatible video card.
i have several files open @ once, , many layers. hobbiest, serious editing , manipulating photos. need run lightroom , have few other programs open such web browser.
i prefer company known reliability , decent customer service , hope keep price range under $2,000. right limted laptop elements 10 , getting desperate. consider reliable online business builds suit. not tech savy or able build own.
is if possible find small desktop video card capable of handling cs6 can do, , 2 hard drives? best use second hard drive scratch , use external drive store photo library or working photos on external drive slow things down?
i want stick windows 7 pro, 64 bit, if have buy copy , reformat new drive install it. because win 8 new comfort level. have enjoyed win 7.
is there problem small form desktops , heat/cooling?
i need new monitor, that's different topic!
if can throw suggestions @ me appreciate it!
i have no specific recommendations, given 2 grand budget can well. things consider.
- 16 gb ram good, more if can. recommend opting ecc ram if possible increased reliability. pay error correction; pay first time don't have crash or corrupted document.
- opt big ssd storage, maybe 2 in raid array, run everything. avoid spinning disk drives entirely, if you're transporting it. idea of premium price should demand, right if watch sales can get, e.g., 256 gb ssds little $160. few weeks ago bought ocz vertex 4 256gb drive christmas present amazon @ price.
- consider motherboard based on intel i7-3xxx series processor has both lots of cores , fast core speed. these ranking high on performance charts single processor systems , run photoshop extremely well.
- all need photoshop decent not exorbitant "desktop/gamer" video card $100 $200. 1 @ least 1 gb of vram.
- you're going want optical drive in - keep in mind blu-ray writer can put 25 gb on disc. having occasional ability write disc large amount of data on can handy, , they're not hugely expensive more.
good luck. let know find.
