Hey there , Seems like I need to upgrade my CPU for my uses.
as for now I currently have the following build:
I5-4690
Gigabyte H97-HD3 MB .
16 Gigs of RAM [ 1600 CL 9 - 4x4 ]
Gigabyte GTX 1060 6GB OC
I noticed that my CPU load goes up to 90% and even higher when I start working on LR and PS.
The issue is most of the times I'm uploading my whole RAW directory and sorting out and filtering images out using LR .
I am giving the Pc time to load the whole library and start working after.
it seems that it takes lot of time for it to load every image when I browse through them , and it takes between 5 to 15 seconds to load the image with the edits on it [ if i have edited it before ofc ].
when i zoom in it takes about 5-10 seconds for every image to stop being pixelated...
and in PS i mostly feeling it slow with all the rendering filters and effects.
anyway , I've been looking through what I could buy and it seems like the best option I have is the I7-4790 [ I'm not into overclocking so I dont really want the K , and I think my MB doesn't support OC anyways ].
The issue is that it seems like the difference between the two is not that big ,
the biggest difference is the threads the both have , which should make my work easier and faster but I'm not sure if its worth the money [ its costs around 400 USD where I live ] .
the second option for me is to wait a little bit more and switch the trio [ CPU, MB and RAM ] which costs way more and I will have to save money for it for a while... not sure which is the correct option for me.
and one more little question is - my cache files of LR are sitting on my HDD since my SSD doesnt have enough free space... will I see a big difference if I get an SSD for my cache files?
