Life As Graphic Designer #5: Upgrading My Computer
Hi Steemians,
Recently I have experienced some crashes using some design tools as Illustrator (mostly) and Photoshop so I was wondering if it is the time for my machine to be upgraded. I have to say I like playing video games on my free time so this is quite important too :D.
My current PC specifications.
- Processor: Intel Core i5 - 6500
- RAM: 8 Gb
- GPU: EVGA GTX 1060 - 6 GB
- HDD: 1Tb
- MOBO: GA-B150M-DS3H
Today I bought this:
1 x Ram Kingston Hypex Ddr4 8 Gb Pc 2400 Mhz Overclock
1 x Intel Core I7 7700k 4.5 Ghz
I cost me a lot of money (actually all my current savings :c ) but I know that this would help me on working more comfortable as I need fast rendering and heavy tasks to load on Photoshop + Illustrator so I can bring to you more useful content on the future :)
The parts should arrive on Monday so I will take some photos when I start building it.
Oh I almost forgot!
The games I currently play are Battlefield 1 and Players unknown battleground :)
Do you want to help me?
I'm a self employeed graphic designer who dreams on having his freedom and full time dedication on his design passion.
I'm spending time and effort with so much energy to bring cool content almost daily!
If you want to extend your love to my ideas it is super easy to do :)

I was experiencing a lot of crashes with Battlegrounds until I saw the game was using almost 8GB of RAM. I upgraded to 16GB and now I have way less crashes. I hope the extra RAM serves you well.
@phomasta I'm going to tell ya what's happening after semble it :D
Best wishes for your design business! (and gaming!)
thank you! best wishes for you too :)
