Hi All,
I'm been hesitating over a new machine for a while now and it is finally time to bite the bullet.
I have put together the spec below and can't stretch any further on the budget.
I have a 500GB Hybrid drive on my current machine which is enough for my current needs and so have gone for the fastest m2 ssd that I could with a similar capacity.
RAM I have left at 8GB on the basis that this is likely to be the easiest thing for me to upgrade in the future should I need to.
I have looked to see if I could manage the 1070 GPU but can't see that it can be done on my budget.
Many thanks in advance for any thoughts.
