Hey gang,
I'm looking to upgrade my 2100+ Photoshop workstation/gaming rig (Ti4400 basically) with 1 Gig RAM to something more powerful....
1) Can i drop in an Athlon 64 on the Epox 8RDA+?
2) I assume Barton 2500+ overclocked to XP3000 speeds is best bet...?
3) I MAY even go RAID with two 120GB HDs (I have three...).. will this boost speed much? And is it hard to do? And do I have to wipe both drives first?
4) Thanks for your help.
Sincerely,
GS
ps. - any and all suggestions are welcome, so please share your thoughts. I work on files ranging anywhere from 40MB to 600MB, so another 512MB RAM and a CPU upgrade, and maybe RAID (like I said) are what I'm thinkin to be good moves to make.
