Hi guys,
I am trying to build a new pc mainly for photoshop art work and secondary for gaming/browsing etc.The Budget is 500 Euros, excluding the PSU(Corsair CX430W) and an HDD(Toshiba 1TB).
So after researching the internet for quite a while i came up with the following parts,
1.CPU: Intel Core i3 4170 3.70Ghz LGA 1150 ( I've seen pretty good reviews for this one for a dual core)
Will it be good enough though for photoshop work? or should i look for an AMD quad core like the AMD A10 7850K 3.70 Ghz?
2.MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte GA Z97P D3
or Asrock H97 Anniversary
3.SSD: OCZ 120 GB
or SAMSUNG 850 EVO SERIES 120 GB
I need an SSD to have my OS,photoshop and some other basic stuff there,as for the rest i have an HDD.
4.RAM: X2 Corsair XMS3 4GB 1600 Mhz
I need at least 8Gbs of ram to run photoshop work adequate.
5.GPU: Radeon Sapphire R7 250 512SP Edition 2GB GDDR 5
or VGA Msi Geforce GT740 2GB GDDR 5
About gaming i want pretty average performance,i dont care about 3A ultra settings or something.To give you some examples, i like to play XCom2,LoL, Endless Legend(Startegy games) and indies more.
6.Case: Corsair Carbide spec 2 midi
or Corsair 200R midi
That's the current parts i lean to.As an amatuer PC builder i would like to hear your suggestions about the aforemetioned or better value products or where should i focus more or even an entire new build.
Thank you for your answers!
