Hi
I'm looking to build a new PC, but I'm on a bit of a budget so I'm trying to buy my hardware wisely. I mostly need it for running Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign for my degree studies.
I also want use Photoshop for detailed, multi layered illustration (fantasy art).
I realise I need to focus on getting a decent processor, RAM and storage first. However, I'm reading lots of conflicting advice as to what graphics card, if any, I actually need?
Will an Intel i5 6400 S alone be sufficient for my needs, or do I need a dedicated card?
I was hoping some of you fellow illustrators could lend some advice.
Many thanks
