Q. I decided to build a new pc to upgrade from my amd athlon64 x2 with 3gb ram. I got a great deal on a GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-S2P AMD 760 Motherboard with an Athlon ii x3 3.1ghz processor and 8gb 1333mhz ram and a 1gb ati hd6451 vid card. After I bought it, I noticed that processors have gone down in price. I'm not a big gamer, the main purpose would be to run photoshop and to play civ4 and the everyday stuff. Would the system I bought be enough or would I have buyers regret and should I go to my local store and pick up an Athlon ii x4 or phenom ii x4. Need to keep the processor under $140. Do you guys think I'd be satisfied with 3 cores considering what I'm upgrading from and that I'm not a gamer?
A. For photo editing I prefer to quad core, and minimum 8 GB of RAM.... You has to have a nice GPU too... Lik e HD 7870 / GTX 660ti...
Hope it helps... :))

Good build for photo editing computer?
Q. I have a 1000 dollar budget, and want to build a PC that can handle photo editing, and maybe minor video editing. There will be absolutely no gaming done on this computer. I will want dual monitors set up, so I think that means integrated graphics is a no, just not sure how good of a GPU to get. I would like to stick to intel processors, and for the GPU, I have no preference.
I'm thinking a haswell i5, but I'm not sure if I should go i7 or not.
will be at least 16gb ram
Other than that, I'm just not sure what to get. I've only built gaming rigs before, so this is kinda new to me as what needs to be powerful and what doesn't. Thanks

A. The i5 will do great in photo editing. When it comes to Video editing, if you were doing intense video editing, for an example doing 10 to 20 projects a day, yes the i7 will be more beneficial to you because you will be able to complete the tasks alot faster because of Hyper-threading technology, if you have deadlines. For someone that does video on a minor basis in my opinion the i5's do really well in video rendering.
So it's up to you on how much you do video editing but me personally, if your on a budget I would rather put the extra $100 I would spend on the i7 and put that towards the GPU or more storage space to hold all the videos you might be doing.
