haha XD

yeah, i was planning to have mine with i5/i7 with 24GB RAM.

You need less than 10gig ram. Only need an i5 I guess.
Ask a forum such as "overlcockers.co.uk", tell them your price range and what you want it to do.

I have 8GB ram and I honestly don't see the difference from when I had 4

plus my aim is triple monitors (20, 22, and 24) and a Cintiq 22UX(?)/24HD
but im starting at bamboo, then Intuos, then Cintiq. if i got a job.


@Atrix depends if you run memory thirsty applications.

You want a 26/28 and two 20/22's(smaller, because you have no desk), the two smaller ones on either side. Or like this |_ | (upside down obviously).


Or a lot of them.

@Nano, a job with whom, doing which type of art/drawing?
Also, I NEED HELP WITH COMPUTER BUYING + INTERNETS ;~; /wrists /wrists /neck.

ah mkay, will prolly do it if i have my own room and a massive desk XD

i was thinking more like this:

but with triple monitors.

firefox with 10+ tabs open at all times, sometimes even more windows, a movie, sometimes even a windowed game and/or photoshop

nah, just a normal job maybe. either an accountant, computer programmer, or a technician. or maybe a graphic designer.
but with an illustrator job.

@Nano, that set up is hell of a mess.
So, Nano, how do you have the money? ;~; Y u no help me bro.
Plus his drawing! It's awesome. Still, with drawing, y u no help me bro. ;~;

@Atrix, I could od that with 2 gig ram on an intel centrino duo, without much lag. :P Minus the game, unless it was fullscreen.

hmm, but if youre using Chrome it will slow it down, cause Chrome uses a LOT of RAM space. plus other useless background apps.

by game, I mean demanding ones like Far Cry, Assassins Creed, or Batman Arkham City

well, ill make it a bit tidier XD
hmm from a job. save money from every paycheck.
yes, his drawings are awesome and im studying his works atm.

how the hell can i help you when you are helping me with your tuts. you should go have a look at them.

you prolly have a good CPU/GPU then

it's 'allight

The hell happened in here.

There's usually no tech talk, unless I'm here .__.

well, i only need a big RAM cause of the stuff that i want to do. plus i HATE a laggy computer.

i almost smashed a school computer once because it froze every minute, or even going to the net.

LOL. BACKGROUND PROGRAMS LAWL. They do less than .2% of your ram. Lawl.

Upgrading your graphics card, if nothing is bottle-necking your system is your best bet at a speed increase.

@toppy, you good with Pcs?

@Nano, I don't even know where to start, plus no computer to even begin those tuts.
and and... I'm crying ;~;

So, what job are you getting the paycheck from?

Okay, I read the posts since I was last here.

I would just like to say, that anything above 8GB is overkill.
About laggy programs, just put them on multiple drives, as it'll lessen the strain on X drive.
For example, I have Chrome and such on an SSD, and games on a 7200RPM HDD, and stuff I rarely use on a 5400RPM HDD.

o. . . .kay O.o
but the main programs that much up y RAM are Chrome, Softimage, and PS
hmm, prolly do that,but yeah,my man priority is RAM.

well, Topiary is the biggest Tech nerd ive met here XD

heh, i dont even have a "personal" comp anymore.

hmm i dunno, maybe a job that will come out of my chosen subjects.

So... You're talking about years in the future, not as in the next few months?

Still, you're failing to help me draw. I have to admit it, I'm kind of disappointed.

so erm just 16GB then?
and isnt SSD expensive? O.o about £100 for a 60GB is what i heard.

If those are the applications you're going to use the most, I'd get 8GB of RAM instead of 24GB.

Why?

Put Chrome on an SSD, and it runs gorgeously.
idk about Softimage, but PS on an SSD runs great too, and it needs more CPU and GPU power than it needs memory.

If you lack memory you can always make a pagefile from another HDD

maybe, or could start saving for it this summer, when i get a summer job.

and i am failing at times too, im not perfect >.> and im not a good teacher u_u

I got my SAMSUNG 830 256GB for like $250.

That's like £130-£140

And Denmark is pretty fucking expensive tech wise

.

*faints*
i know less shit than i thought XD.
but thanks for the advice though

still, pretty expensive.
maybe the price will go down in a couple of years.

Also, 8GB Quad Channel 1866MHz memory > 24GB 1333MHz any day

Well, you can give me a push and tell me what the absolute beginning is, and find a tut that actually teaches me crap, instead of making me use exactly what it says to use, and look completely different, no matter how hard, light, or angle I press.

Which summer job? You better ask a few people at school if they know any good paying jobs for the summer. They might have family and such. I'm serious. If you don't ask. I lose some respect for you.

@Nano, you only need a SSD for programs and such. All it does is increase load up times, really fast. It's not good for gaming, and not good for photoshop I hear.

@Toppy, why not just 64gig SD card? I heard you can use (micro?)SD cards as the main harddrive in laptops, why not pc's?

SD cards have shit speeds ._.

Well, they have a 4 inside one HD case to make it RAID, :/

Still. The New PS3, will be 10x better than the newest one, and will have NEXT GEN discs. You know. Better than blu ray.

SDCARDRAID

Also, gib 15000RPM harddisk.

That write speeeeeeeeeeeed~

hmm, i forgot how i started ;~; but try shapes (ovals, circles) and make them into human shapes perhaps? because as i can remember, i started on the head.

i dunno really, and i am asking some of my cm8s if they know anything, just like you said.

ahh okay. got it


and im going now, my sister is fucking annoying me, saying she wants her laptop back.
maybe back later, on phone, with a lot of typos. . .

As if that helps >_>

Good, good.

K

Lol. It's her laptop. Thank her. Buy her a lollipop as thanks maybe? Icecream?

Hey hey guys, hows it going? ^^

Bad. I have a terrible cold D:
Hbu?

:'( another cold, i feel bad that you get them so easily.

Hope you get better soon :)

@Romy, still aching after all that Volley Ball? :3

Awhh thank you issei~ * hug*
