I own an embroidery business. I have top level digitizing software which I just upgraded. My current computer does not meet the specs and while the software will run, it's slow and crashes a lot. Sometimes a few times a day and sometimes more than a few times an hour, depending on what I'm doing. I have the minimum specs for the software. It looks like I need to be looking for a gaming computer and probably build my own (son can put it all together). I've spent more than to many hours online trying to find a desktop or laptop that fit the specs and so far, no luck. Part of it is that I really don't know enough about all the specs to make a good decision, mostly on the video card. Here are the minimum spec:
-64-bit 3.0 GHz Quad Core Genuine Intel Processor (prefer faster than 3GHz)
-Microsoft Windows® 10 (64-bit) (prefer Pro)
-Video Card NVidia® GeForce® GTX 1050 Ti with 4GB GDDR5 Graphics memory (or comparable)
-CD-ROM drive
-4 GB RAM (would prefer at least 16GB RAM)
-At least one Universal Serial Bus (USB) Port, but really need at least 4, but more would be nice.
-ability to connect to LAN so I can network my embroidery machines.
For my requirements:
- as small form factor as possible or a laptop. My space is very limited.
- ability to connect at least 2 monitors
approximately what am I looking at price wise here so I can set a budget. Where should I be looking for parts.
Thanks,
Alisa
