I'm researching a build that would allow nearly lightning speed of switching between Windows 7 user ID's and also allow me to stay logged in multiple users at the same time without sacrificing performance. What would be the components in order of importance for this purpose? Like 1. CPU; 2. RAM; 3. SSD?
Also I would appreciate specific recommendations for components. I'm only looking to upgrade CPU, Mobo, RAM and HDD (SSD). Budget is $500-1000. Basicaly, looking to spend only as much as it is necessary to make Windows lightning fast.
I'm currently using a 2007-2008 system that loads and switches between users very slowly:
