My PC is about 11 years old. See link below for details and it is starting to struggle with what I use it for which is photo editing.
It has the Core-i7 (2600) spec with 12Gb ram (max) & AMD Radeon HD 6850 graphics. I've also installed a SSD for the C: drive & running Windows 10.
I use Topaz Labe and Adobe software and my PC is a couple of generatons below what their minimum specs recommend.(e.g.Core-i5 >3GHz & 2GB of dedicated VRAM (Radeon 5870 or greater)
Ideally I'd just like to upgrade the graphics card but not sure if it will help.
As photo editing is very much a hobby and only occasional use of the PC and not a business I don't really want to spend a lot of money. I'm happy with all the peripherals as well.
Any ideas?
