Pc spec for photoshop work (1 Viewer)

Roy C said:
as an update I have now got the new PC up and running. Went for i7 3770 3.5 GHz (no overclocking) - 16GB ram, 120 gb SSD, windows 7.
Everything is running great and handling photoshop fine. Biggest differences is :
Very quite (can not hear it is even turned on).
Loads windows and other progs in mega quick time thanks to the SSD. I am a happy bunny B :)

Glad to hear you're all set up, Roy. I know where you're coming from ;). The spec of my new system is fairly similar although the quad-core i7 processor isn't quite so fast. But, having come from a system with a single-core 1.6GHz Intel Celeron processor and 2GB RAM, which took 10+ seconds to even open Photoshop Elements 3, I am extremely satisfied! I've had Elements 11 sitting on my desk for months, knowing that if I attempted to load it onto the old PC, it would turn up its toes and that would be that, lol.

If you have a moment, Roy, I'd appreciate it if you could take a look at the image(s) I uploaded onto this thread (http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=258776) and let me know how they look on your newly calibrated monitor, please? They're not great shots, it's more the light/dark balance I'm after, if possible.

Many thanks and enjoy the new set up :t:
