Looking for recommendations for a new PC build.
This would be for Photoshop CC and Lightroom Classic, no video or gaming.
I would like to put together a PC that will serve me for many years, my last build was in 2011.
Obviously things have changed quite a bit and I would appreciate any advice.
Does Photoshop still need a separate scratch disk or do the current SSD’s and larger RAM capacity eliminate the need for one?
I am thinking one NVME SSD for the OS and programs and one for data, images etc. Backup and long term file storage to my existing external hard drives.
Any features or options I am overlooking, please feel free to point out. I would also welcome any brand recommendations.
I plan to order all the components and then have a local shop assemble it all and install the OS.
Here is what I am considering so far.
CPU: Intel Core i9-10900K 3.7 GHz 10-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock 4 CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus ProART Z490-CREATOR 10G ATX LGA1200 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
Storage: Samsung 970 Evo 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Storage: Samsung 970 Evo 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Video Card: GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6 GB Video Card
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro OEM 64-bit
Thank you for any and all advice and suggestions.
