June 7, 201015 yr Guys,I am planning to upgrade my wife's comp. She is a graphics designer and works on Photoshop CS3 and needs a good setup for graphics but no games.I saw that the I3 530/H55/4GB RAM combo would get her everything in one package.My question is will the integrated gpu on this combo work for her?How would you compare the performance of the integrated GPU with a stand alone GPU? What stand alone GPU would the performance of this integrated GPU be comparable to?ThanksShez Shez Ansari Windows 11; CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K; GPU: EVGA GEFORCE GTX 1080Ti 11GB; MB: Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Gaming 5; RAM: 16GB; HD: Samsung 960 Pro 512GB SSD, Samsung 850 Pro 256GB SSD; Display: ASUS 4K 28", Asus UHD 26"
June 7, 201015 yr Sure it will work, but ideally you'll buy something with a CUDA-capable Nvidia card to fully accelerate Photoshop. Doesn't have to be anything fancy, a GT240 or so would do the trick.
June 7, 201015 yr Author Thanks. Will go with this setup and consider the GPU.Shez Shez Ansari Windows 11; CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K; GPU: EVGA GEFORCE GTX 1080Ti 11GB; MB: Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Gaming 5; RAM: 16GB; HD: Samsung 960 Pro 512GB SSD, Samsung 850 Pro 256GB SSD; Display: ASUS 4K 28", Asus UHD 26"
