Hi everyone,
I shoot photography (RAW, high res pics) and I use Lightroom and Photoshop. I will eventually start editing videos as well.
The problem I have with my system is that every time I try to apply presets to my pictures, my computer crashes and I get the so called "blue screen of death".
It's so frustrating to work even on a single picture because it lags so much and I can hear the actual pc humming harder and louder as I try to apply the presets and then it crashes.
I want something that will allow me to work on my pictures and video editing smoothly with no lags and obviously no stupid crashes.
I'm clueless when it comes to computers, below is my build and what do you guys recommend I should do?
Do I need a new graphics card, a new processor, etc.?
or do you think i need new build and if so, what kind of build would you recommend (I was thinking Intel with a $3k budget).
If you think a new build is the way to go, can I salvage some parts from my current PC into a new one and would you recommend liquid or air cooling. I want something that'll last me for many years to come.
WINDOWS 10 PRO
MSI 990FXA-GD80 (MS-7640)
AMD FX (TM) -8350 Eight Core Processor
RAM 16 GB
NVIDIA GeForce GTX760
Air cooled
64 bit operating system
Primary storage 500gb
Secondary storage 4tb
Thanks everyone and sorry for the long rant.
