We need to buy a new hardware for our Art Gallery and we need a powerfull device to move Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesind. This hardware must be a windws based platform as we have many other apps running on it and our experience with apple was not good.

Can any give me some hints about which components our new PC must have?

thanks

Hi. 

My recommendation:

Any Intel i7 or i9 Processor

More than 16 Gb Ram.

Nvidia Graphic Card with more than 2 Gb Ram (the "Pro" line not the gamers one)

SSD Drives (NVMe or M2) 2 or more https://www.performance-computer.com/learn/ssds-compared/

A special monitor or display, here some options: https://justcreative.com/2020/01/06/monitors-for-graphic-design/

For a prebuilt computer check the workstation line of the major vendors (HP, Dell, Lenovo).
