Hello

I am totally new on this community. I want to know something.

What is the minimum requirement of PC to use Adobe photoshop CC 2017?

If 4 GB ram and Pentium processor would be enough for it?

On which setup of PC I can use that smoothly without any hang?

Thanks.

Here are the minimum requirements:

Photoshop system requirements

You really need at least 8 GB for good performance.

What else needs to be upgraded depends on how you use Photoshop and what other applications you are using and if you need to have more than one application open at a time.
