    Better off starting a forum on this topic…not a deal.

    • TRDSupra on 12/11/2017 - 19:07

      My bad. New to this.

      How can I delete this and post it to the forum section?

      • rhabdoviridae on 12/11/2017 - 19:12

        I believe a moderator can delete the post for you.

  • currentfad on 12/11/2017 - 19:06

    Pretty sure you can get a better prebuilt from a reputable store like PCCG, MSY, PLE, mWave etc. for the same or lesser price.

  • congo on 12/11/2017 - 19:10

    You can do cheaper/better

  • Alitoleah on 12/11/2017 - 19:15

    this is 6th processor, it's time to 8th processor now. Definitely not worth it

  • TRDSupra on 12/11/2017 - 19:18

    OK guys, thanks for your input.

    I have an older HP Envy PC i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHZ, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT640.

    Still in perfect order and does the job.

    Mainly use it for Photoshop and Lightroom and no gaming at all.

    What sort of builds would you suggest for those needs.

    Thanks

  • TRDSupra on 12/11/2017 - 19:27
    Merged from PC build for Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom

    Hello,

    I have an older HP Envy h8-1425a PC i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHZ, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT640.

    Still in perfect order and does the job.

    Mainly use it for Photoshop and Lightroom and no gaming at all.

    What sort of builds would you suggest for these needs if I decide to upgrade.

    Thanks

      Still in perfect order and does the job.

      Then don't upgrade…

      You'll get the best bang for the buck if you upgrade when you actually need to.

      • TRDSupra on 12/11/2017 - 19:41

        Thanks, that's a fair point

  • langthang on 12/11/2017 - 19:51

    But, it is Alienware.

     Cheapest search from Staticice
 Geforce GTX 1080 = $699
 DDR4 32GB = $249
 512GB SSD = $162
 4TB HDD = $155
 i7-6850K = $639
 X99 Motherboard = $360
 CPU Liquid Cooler = $59
 850W Modular Power Supply = $124
 Windows 10 Home = $110
 Total = $2,557

    Plus, you need a case. Where can you buy a nice case like the Alienware Area 51 R2?

    • ATangk on 12/11/2017 - 20:21

      Its decent then, since you'll get alienware support which i expect to be slightly better than standard dell support, and much better than the no support youll get buying individual.

      • pretz92 on 12/11/2017 - 22:32

        eh, its shipped from malaysia with limited 1yr warranty, wouldnt get your hopes up (not that id even consider it)

        • ATangk on 12/11/2017 - 23:34

          I didn’t actually look that deep into the link. That does change things; a lot.

  • thors_hammer on 21/11/2017 - 00:44

    I would suggest you steer away from Dell. They wont honour a warranty claim.
