Hey Tom's!
Hoping I could get some insight on this.
The small retail store I work at is going to upgrade one of their PC's. I'm thinking of getting a warrantied PC from either Dell or HP. Here are the specs of the two computers.
#1. Front PC:
- CPU: Pentium E5300
- MB: OG679R
- RAM: 4gb DDR2
- GPU: on board through Mobo
#2. Back PC:
- CPU: i3 540
- MB: P7H55-M LX
- RAM: 4gb DDR3
- GPU: on board through Mobo
They use the front computer only for sales manager of keystroke which is a standard P.O.S software (Bar code scanning/ monetary transactions). They use the back computer for keystroke, price tagging, emails, minor Photoshop and marketing through social media. PC #1 with the pentium is rather... archaic, and I am thinking of swapping the two PC's, and making the PC with the pentium as a backup and storing it away. The PC with the i3 would be the front PC, and I am currently ordering a rig for the back room.
Could you guys suggest a rig that would work well for a small retail store? Would an i5 benefit this company a lot? I am also considering getting SSD's for the i3 system and the new system.
Sorry for the ramble, might seem confusing. Any replies are appreciated! Tom's FTW
