[QUOTE="Mike150, post: 26221, member: 2287"] Not that you need more data to muddy the waters, but here's my two cents worth. So far, nobody has mentioned RAM. All Programs (MS-Word, Photoshop, Lightroom etc.) are executed from RAM. When you open one, it is copied from the Hard Drive to the RAM. Therefore I vote "LOTS" of Ram. Minimum of 6G. 8G would be better. I bought my new PC in January. I had planned on the Core-i7 processor, but to save money I backed off to the Core-i5. I used the extra saved to upgrade the Ram to 16G. Haven't regretted it. I bought the HP because I'm a "fan" of the Lightscribe feature for burning CDs and DVDs [/QUOTE]
