Default Re: Photoshop PC

a graphics card is indeed a relevent factor in this config, just not high grade, or even mainstream gaming grade graphics card

when u work in photoshop, what u see on screen is saved in the graphics card as the frame buffer, both in the case of XP SP2 or Vista or Mac, this is most appereant when working with 4K images of HDR images with onboard graphics, when moving arround the photoshop viewport crawls

just get a PCIe 7300GS, with 256 MB RAM, thats enough for this task

1 GB X2 RAM modules is a better choice

U can go for both core 2 duo E6400 (saving some money) or E6600, there will be difference, but only a max of 10%, so if u are tight on budget get E6400. an operation which takes 2 mins in E6600 will take 2 minute 40 seconds in E6400 at max, i do think u can spare 40 more seconds, it won't matter much
