I plan to buy a new computer för use with Photoshop (as of right now PS 5.1 but perhaps better version later). and perhaps some Premiere Pro and After Effects, but in limited amounts. Also plan to use a DAW (music software) with it.
This is what I'm aiming for:
CPU: Intel i9-9900K 3.6 GHz
RAM: 32 Gb Corsair Vengeance DDR4
Harddrives: 2 x SSD drives + 1 large HDD for back-ups.
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 1060 Ti 6 Gb VRAM
OS: Win 10 Home
I have done a lot of research on the internet but it haven't answered all my questions.
Some questions if anybody cares to answer:
1. Motherboard. There seems to be a lot to choose from, haven't really decided. How many PCIe-ports do I need? They seem to be coming in different sizes on the motherboard (2x - 16x). Confusing.
2. Fan. Liquid or air cooler?
3. RAM in two slots (2 x 16 Gb)? Not one 32 Gb? Which is best? Also, what frequency is suitable? Some info say that 2333 GHz is max för i9-9900K (or something)?
4. An NVMe-boot disk is supposed to be theoretically faster than a SSD-disk, but some sources say it doesn't matter because the bottleneck is somewhere else?
5. What about 10 bit color? From my understanding the GeForce cards now have been updated to 10 bit via a driver? If I in the future I need 10 bit-color then I would only need to buy a new cable and a new monitor? How important is it with 10 bit anyways? Does all the pros who work in advertisements use 10 bit-color for example?
