Approximate Purchase Date: Would like to buy soon, but can hold off if suggested due to new releases reducing prices on existing HW
Budget Range: (e.g.: 300-400) Was originally shooting for around $1,000 - $1,200 - had no luck pricing under around $1,500.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Photoshop 95%. Occasional basic video editing.
Are you buying a monitor: No.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: None really.
Location: NH
Parts Preferences: by brand or type (e.g.: Intel CPU
Overclocking: Not likely
SLI or Crossfire: Not likely (?)
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1200
Additional Comments: Trying to minimize cost but also maximize ease of upgrading. Currently use an OLD (2012) i7 setup that is lagging a decent amount on Photoshop CC 2017. Going to reuse system for another purpose and not reuse parts as I assume even the old SSD (2014ish) isn't worth integrating into a new box.
