Last week I put my new build request in however, as I get closer and closer to coming out of pre-production I am wondering whether I should really increase or decrease any of the specs.
The machine isn't going to be heavily taxed although there will be some video and photo editing done. I won't be overclocking or anything like that. I also want the machine to last me as long as possible without the need of upgrading if possible.
I already have a few left overs from my old computer (such as OS, DVD writer etc.) so have cut back on ordering some things.
I don't really play games on my PC although I do occasionally dip in and out of some, nothing hardcore.
So, assuming it isn't too late to change anything, do you think that this is okay for a light use PC?
