Hello everyone!
First off I know these upgrade questions show up here all the time and can't be that interesting, but I appreciate any advice or input that can be provided.
I think it's once again time to start looking to update my ageing system. This is the first rig that I put together myself and can bet it's not the most optimal setup.
I use this machine for fairly demanding Photoshop work and gaming. In games I can usually get to some pretty high settings but would love to push it even farther. As for Photoshop in many of my paintings I can get some very noticeable lag while using several features and brushes. Based on my specs what do you think would be the most logical thing to upgrade next?
