Another Computer Build


TTQ B4U

Recommended Posts

Looking into building a new PC for some Photography work. Haven't done it before, but I'm looking at something like the new i5 or i7 processor.

 

I have other HD's and a DVD Drive I will insure will fit with what I buy, but initially scanning Tiger Direct I put this together. What are your thoughts? I work with 10-22megapixel RAW images that can be upwards of 150meg each.

 

Anything I should consider doing differently?

I don't know that you would need Windows 7 ultimate.

 

If you have access to a .edu email address you can get 64bit professional for $65

thats where mine came from. they label is at an upgrade copy, but i burned the ISO to a disk and did a fresh install on a blank HDD.

 

 

Tim, up the memory. double it. 4 gigs is weak compared to the rest of the system. i think youll run into issues rendering those huge images.
