Hi everyone,

Im planning to build a PC for graphic design for my sister.
She mostly uses the Adobe apps like Illustrator, In desingn, Photoshop, and sometimes Flash and Premiere.
She's also planning to learn programming, I don't know if programming needs some extra spec juice...



I am not so sure about what cpu to chose since, I've been told that Ryzen has better multitasking performance, and my sister does a lot of it. So i hear your opinions and recommendations.
The budget is around $500-750
 
Try to wait for Ryzen 2600G to come out, I am using 1600 as place holder for now.
