the main function would be Photoshop, so for the scratch disk,
got a Solid state hard drive and didn't care much about 3d capabilities,
nor the quad core processor.
Photoshop can only use 3 Gigs of Ram in 64bit, if i remember well,
but i didn't go for the 64bit OS so 4GB ram was the way to go.
first test on it was trying some crazy
scaterring + dual brush+ none spacing + texture
BRUSHES at 170dpi , and i gotta say it was very smooth.
I usually work everything at 72dpi cause i like the speed,
with this machine i can finally upgrade to 170dpi for everything
and keep my speed addiction.
Altough, somehow i fear this Rig is not that stable,
yesterday it frooze meanwhile i was painting this image,
just frooze, never happened to me with windows XP
and the same version of PS been using for a while . . . only time will tell.
Here are the main specs:

Gotta give credit to my wife Kelly who was the mastermind
behind the planning of the new PC, great job baby <3

congratulations on the new machine,
as far as i know, photoshop is not able to use more then 2gigs of ram.
this could change with cs4 though.
Another great mech :D
hawwwt!

This is insane Gabriel! Love it!! I hate you!
another beautiful piece.
sweet works. I love your mechs!
Andreas, Ben, Mindy, Carlo, Darren, Ian, Tham, Steve and Alex, I appreciate you guys dropping by and leaving a comment, thanks so much :-)
hello gabo
this is gray from neo.
photoshop CS4 64 bit is able to use more than 5giga. I use it at work with 8 gigs of ram and 5 gigs are dedicated to the speed of CS4(i also work with a 64 bit version of vista).
for now all is well, no freez, no lag, even when i save a file of 700mo it take less than 30 second.
that was my testimony héhé
very nice blog by the way, i will link you to mine soon.
cheers
Gary
I saw by a webside a wonderful house, in the beginning I though it couldn´t be real, however I went see it and I stood cold when I saw how nice it was so I decided to prove the costa rica investment opportunities and I bought the house. I still don´t believe how beautiful it is.
