Hi all

I have an old alienware gaming desktop pc from 2014 and I have not made any changes to the specs since then except to change the graphics card which went kaput 2 years ago.

I do a lot of my graphic video editing and work on the same pc and store a lot of work files but also use the pc for gaming.

I wanted to find out what specs in 2021 are neccessary for a versatile desktop with good graphics card and minimum specs for ram and speed as i hate the lag my pc has now as it takes a very long time to load on start up and does lag sometimes when i multi task

sUGGestions?

macbook air

Just went to try to get a gaming pc built based on recom here..wow..graphic card prices thru the roof! RM7k to build.

What is a good graphic card to get for graphic design/video edit & gaming?

Have you used SSD already for main disk?

Check your bottleneck right now.

Use this: https://openhardwaremonitor.org/
Check utilization of CPU, RAM, GPU when gaming or doing graphic thing.

EDIT: my CPU is from 2011 era and still not bottlenecking on CPU.
