I have a working horse comp (DTP - Lightroom, Photoshop, Indesign, Dreamweaver, Archicad) and maybe it is time for upgrading my machine. I am not a tech expert, but I'd like to hear some suggestions from you, experts. Should I upgrade and what to upgrade, I think some components are still quite good, maybe just to overclock the processor (I read that i920 is going almost to 4 GHz without any special hardware), or upgrade my mobo, prc, RAM... Consider my budget is cca 400 USD. Please suggest and thank you!
