Hi Gidders

Pleased to hear you built your current PC based on the components I reccommended to you, here's an updated list of good components that won't cost you the earth but will give you a large improvement over the one you're using now. The spec is similar to the PC I'm using at the moment, it handles Photoshop CS4, Nikon Capture NX 2.1 and Lightroom 2 with no trouble at all and is very quick, in fact I'm able to have all 3 open together if I need to. Although Win XP doesn't recognise the 4.0Gb of Ram, Photoshop etc, is still able to make use of it and your computer runs faster than if you only had 3Gb.

All the best.

nirofo.
