Hi Brian! My husband and I have been trying to put together a list of parts for a new computer for me. Primarily for photo editing, but I do a little bit of gaming as well (nothing overly demanding). I want longevity out of this thing, but I was also hoping to spend a couple hundred less than where we are currently sitting. Do you see anywhere I could cut back a little and not lose a ton of performance and longevity? Or, on the flip side, do you see anything here that you think isn't going to cut it and we should change or beef up a bit? Here's what we have:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 8 core
Motherboard: MSI ATX DDR4 AM4 AMD X370 Chipset SATA IIIRAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2x16)
Video Card: ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB Dual fan
Hard Drive: WD Blue 1 TB (we will have 3 total, 1 for the OS and apps, and 2 - 1 TB mirrored drives exclusively for photos)
Power Supply: EVGA 500 W
Dell Ultrasharp U2415 24 inch
Windows 10 Home
Thank you for any thoughts/advice you have.
