PC setup for Adobe?

+1 to all the comments about monitor, calibration etc. In terms of productivity, this outweighs the importance of the rest several times over. The monitor is the single most critical component in your entire system.

The machine lets you do the exact same thing a tiny bit faster. The monitor has direct impact on the quality of your work. It should be at least half your budget, for a balanced total system.

Hi

I'm with KRSeals on this one. your specs look fine but a hardware calibration and profile device will make more difference to your work , in terms of being confident in the colours you see on screen, than small differences in processing speed. So I would definitely add it into the budget, even if you are working on a mid quality monitor.

Outside of 3D rendering, my PC spends more time waiting for me than I do waiting for it - and for those renders I use a 3D app that can render most things on the GPU.

Are you planning to use a high end professional monitor like NEC or Eizo?  Hardware calibration with something like the i1 Pro?

Hi! I feel your PC spec setup is really gaming oriented, it works great for Creative Cloud apps. Can I ask you if you prefer switching to a more "workstation" oriented hardaware? Photoshop utilities a lot OpenCL and CUDA cores so GPU brands won't matter. But I can suggest if you planning to render heavily, AMD Ryzen 7 or better have a better performance/cost compared to Intel i7.

Hi Patrykm,

This configuration looks pretty good to run Photoshop smoother and faster, please check this article to see the system requirements for Photoshop Photoshop system requirements
