no. An extensive photoshop project would probably bog that down... I would think you need more than 8GB for sure and an i5 is weak. spend the money and go with an i7 and 16GB of ram at the minimum.


Bad advice if he is looking for a GAMING pc. I5 2500k is perfect for gaming and 8 gbs is plenty. Hell I've never used more than 4gb.

That's what I am thinking. My friend got the same thing as what I listed except he got an i7 instead of an i5 and it runs great. What I've heard is the i5 is great for gaming, not as good as the i7 obviously, but it does the job just fine so I don't see the reason to spend the extra money on what I don't need.
