I edit in the same place with very neutral walls. It has a window but this room is quite dark thanks to the Seattle weather and a giant hill and forest that blocks a lot of light. It definitely isn't void of all natural light but it is what it is. I stick to this room/area because of a very particular chair that I use. I have a genetic spinal condition and double calcific shoulder tendonitis and this is the only chair I am comfortable in. I use a portable/adjustable desk that I can pull in towards me so that I am as comfortable as can be. That being said, I could probably find a new desk that would allow me to use both my chair and a desktop. I should probably mention that I have been using Photoshop CC 2021. I am not a fan of glitches and there always seems to be an issue or 5 when upgrading. I'm not big on AI so haven't used it. I realize that is irrelevant because I will still need a robust computer that will last me more than a couple of years. Would you mind sending me some recommendations of some desktops that are around the $2500 price point? I have a savings account and could swing the purchase but whether or not my husband will be happy with me is a completely different story.

Would it make more sense to switch to a desktop? Does my current laptop even have an IPS display? What exactly is an IPS display? I am not well versed when it comes to computers. I know I need RAM and memory but I had no idea about the graphics card or IPS display.

My current laptop is an Inspiron 15 5000 Series which my bil added more RAM to. It has worked very well since I got it in 2015. However, I recently received a notification from Photoshop that my current graphics card is no longer supported. I am unable to open any RAW files. I used my sons G16 to edit my most recent session in ACR and then edit the rest on my laptop. This is not ideal and I'll need something sooner rather than later. Is it even possible to find something under $2,000? This unforeseen hiccup has come after a series of unforeseen hiccups that leave me with a limited budget. I do not have any specific preferences other than sticking to a laptop, if I can.
