Hello Cubebrush forum. I have been have trouble trying to decide on what components to build my new digital painting workstation with.
I took advice from this forum and others into consideration, and in response I have formulated this list of potential components to upgrade my current rig. Since someone had advised be against Intel processors due to its restrictions on multi-threaded processing I have tried to research an AMD build with similar specifications;
Possible new components:
PSU: CS650M
GPU: MSI AMD Radeon RX 580 X 8G
CPU: AMD FX 9590
RAM: CS XMS3 1333MHz (4G DDR3 x4 = 16G)
MOBO: Gigabyte 78lmt-usb3
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB
On the surface this looks like more than enough, but I am worried I may buy these components only to find my existing issues persist. These components would cost roughly £586.12 ($750.82), which is within my original £700 budget.
Will these components be able to run Photoshop (and Corel painter 2017) optimally without as many issues? I must build this computer ASAP before the start of my next semester.
Thank you for your time. This is very puzzling.
