Hi, I'm trying to spec my first complete build which is primarily for photoshop and illustrator work. I've got a budget of about £700 for the case and everything in it but I'm not sure where to spend the money, CPU, RAM or hard disks - or GPU.
Will I notice much difference between i7 and Phenom? Should I put money saved with AMD into more RAM?
I had considered a SSD but Adobe has told me Photoshop won't run on one, but could I use one for the OS and page file?
This noob would really appreciate any advice.
(Loads more questions to come, I'm sure!)
Cheers
