All:
I'm looking to upgrade my work computer over the winter. Most of the time, I am opening and closing documents and using Adobe Acrobat. The load times for opening larger files and opening multiple documents at once is starting to annoy me, so it's time to upgrade.
Current office build:
FX-6300
Gigabyte 990fx UD5
Sandisk SSD Plus SSD
16gb 1600mhz DDR3
Basically, I've retired all of my old gaming PC parts to my work computer, but my old gaming motherboard/cpu was repurposed, so I'm starting from scratch here. I'd like to stay around $300 for the motherboard/cpu combo (perhaps Ryzen 5 2600) and keep my current SSD, but I'm wondering if I would be better off allocating my budget towards getting a faster SSD for my application with less cpu (say a Ryzen 3 along with a Samsung 970 Evo). In truth, I don't know if opening applications and saving large Adobe Acrobat files uses more cpu or hard drive resources.
I know we are talking seconds in the end of the day, but I run a volume business and it's mostly for future proofing and my sanity.
Thanks in advance,
-Jacob
