Approximate Purchase Date: Next few days
Budget Range: $650 after all is said and done
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Productivity, then mid level gaming
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Trusted websites
Location: Kansas City
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe in future
Additional Comments: Photoshop Elements, Adobe Lightroom, Microsoft Office
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Cheap laptop (Pentium P6200) can't handle photo editing.
Specific questions:
Do you feel this budget is adequate for the task at hand?
Is getting an unlocked processor worth the added cost in this budget range?
I might be able to offset the cost of the O/S, so what items would you upgrade if you had another $100?
If I wanted to upgrade down the road, which items are more economical to spend now, rather than upgrade later?
