im looking for gpu especially for photoshop purpose as i found that standard integrated gpu isnt didnt quite strong to support my photoshop work and some light gaming purpose ,
any suggestion ?

Any budget to work with?

maybe u might consider to upgrade CPU also since 4150 only dual core for Photoshop works

does gt 730 can meet this adobe requirement ?

Try to get a Geforce 750 Ti instead.

Yup, a 750Ti will be better. Can search around GS for good deals. If want something new, can consider GTX 1050

730 still not enough ?

How many gigs of ram do you have? What are you using Photoshop for? You do not need a fast GPU to run photoshop unless you use those specific features, check here:

I have 16gb ram and running current i3 4150
I realise that my photo editing even using simple mode isnt smooth compared to my previous athlon which is lower in spec.

If you edit high resolution photos your ram will get filled up very quickly, check your task manager and make sure it's not the ram causing the issue.

Check CPU usage as well, if it is always Photoshop's usage is always 99% then it could be the CPU speed.

Also note that the system requirements says they recommend GPU with 2gb vram, so any GPU with that amount of vram will give you a performance gain.

Before buying a new GPU, go to your BIOS setup, and look for settings that would give more vram to your onboard GPU, check and see if that helps.

Too low. Get 750 Ti or 1050.

i'm pretty sure GPU isn't your problem. it's your CPU that's slowing everything down

Most Photoshop features relies on single thread only, multi-core can help shortening some processing time but that should not affect the overall smoothness of the app.

get GTX1050 or Ti version, 750Ti is hard to find now

i3-4150 is enough, it is hyperthreading as 4 core, unless you are doing CaD, then perhaps you should consider i7 core.
photoshop is not so demanding on CPU but with a GPU help, it sure helps the smoothness. I also doing simple photoshopping myself and not having problem

just bought one ,
does win 7 32 bit will affecting ram performance as im installing 16gb of ram into my system
but seems it was 32 bit only 4gb allocated for the system




Attached thumbnail(s)

Go 64bit... 32bit you get to use only maximum 4gb or RAM

Anything above 3.5GB of RAMs, you need 64 bit. End of story

Surely it's RAM, look at that - 4GB RAM mana cukup for Photoshop? Can use but it's going to be slow.

i3-4150 is OK actually, I'm using i3-6100 with 16GB RAM for Photoshop / Lightroom. No issues, gets work done just fine.

G4560 over my i5-3570 good mou?

Or better wait another new G series?

I do understand decent GPU might be sufficient for running photoshop..

so RAM and CPU more important than GPU to run photoshop?
