I have several questions, so please bare with me…
I’m getting a new system for work and wanted to know if Photoshop will take advantage of Dual Processors. Am I better off just getting a system with Hyperthreading, or just a plain processor? Would it be wiser to spend the money on other hardware, such as SCSI hardrives and faster/more ram?
My other question is, will I see a significant difference between SCSI hard drives and SATA? Given that price vs. performance, is it really worth getting SCSI? Should I also go dual hard drives, and have the 2nd be used by Photoshop as a primary scratch disk? Will this make a difference?
I’ll be using Photoshop CS and what I’m really getting at is, what hardware configuration would you choose for a system that needs to last you three years. This is assuming money is not much of a concern, but at least it needs to be justified. I know you could just go all out and get the best/fastest of everything, but will the performance be noticeable and worth it?
Thanks for all your help and input. It is greatly appreciated.
