I am having a pc built from scratch and have a couple of questions. Firstly, how much demand is the video card going to have? The techies who'll put the computer together say a regular 1GB Geforce card will suffice as most of the load is taken by the processor (Intel i5). Second is drives - when I work with video I know that keeping software on one physical drive and the files in work on the other is considered a better practice. Does the same apply to images or is it not too critical and I can have just one large drive, with or without partitions? Finally, is there anything in favour of SSDs apart from their quick boot-up, which is not really important for a desktop computer? Size/cost-wise don't seem to be such a good buy and I've seen at least one catastrophic failure of an ssd on a modern laptop to be wary of them. Thank you. |
