I just upgraded to Photoshop CS and bought a new digital camera (6 megapixel) and I would like to upgrade my 1.7G Windows XP system. The question is, of all the options such as cpu speed, more memory, etc has anyone looked at these options to see which ones improve photoshop performance? I know the more memory the better but there are other options to think about such as:
— Athlon vs Pentium. I saw one website that benched marked a 1.3G Atheon with a 1.7 P4 and for most benchmarks the Atheon was better.
— Is increasing CPU speed worth the cost?
— Front end bus: I see numbers from 400 to 800 Mhz, is this one of the bottlenecks?
— Graphics card, I assume going with the AGP 8x is correct, but what about memory, is the extra cost for 256mb worth the additional $$
Any help picking the right options to pay for in an upgrade would very helpful, TIA!
