Hello everyone,
I'm looking to upgrade my desktop / work computer. I've been having issues with streaming and using photoshop at the same time alongside streaming games on my twitch channel. I use this computer for everything including work as a freelance graphic designer. I built the system in 2013 with recent addons for storage / RAM upgrades
This is my current setup:
OS: Windows 10 Home - 64 Bit
CPU: Intel Core i73770K @ 3.50GHz / Ivy Bridge 22mm Technology
MotherBoard: ASRock 277 Extreme4 (CPU Socket)
RAM Corsair CML8GX3M2A1600C9 Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory 1.5V and Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 2133 MHz (PC3 17000) Desktop, Red 1.5V (4 sticks in all)
Graphics: 4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 (EVGA)
Storage: 238 GB SSD (for programs / fast boot) and 4tb WesternDigital SATA (for my work data)
Power Supply: Corsair Professional Series AX 850 Watt ATX/EPS Modular 80 PLUS Gold
Case NZXT Phantom PHAN-003RD Red White Finish w/Red Trim Steel / Plastic Enthusiast ATX Full Tower Computer Case - https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146074
I currently use two IPS screens for my work alongside a Huion KAMVAS GT-191 Drawing Tablet, which is the giant screen type that you can draw directly on. I want to be able to use my webcam as well for streams.
Please let me know what components you think I should upgrade. I'd like to be able to upgrade things one by one if possible.
