    good question - the answer is no lol

    was hoping for a few recommendations so i can decide based on cost

    if i were to throw out a figure .. say $500 tops? Figured if i go over that i might as well look into built boxes

    For Photoshop and Lightroom, you really don't need a graphics card. Can you confirm which processor you currently have? That FX5950 is a graphics card.

    She ain't stock anymore.
    Check out some of the budget builds on the site I linked above, you can see what cheap parts people are using and check compatibility with your motherboard. Depending on how old your set up is, you might be able to get away with just a GPU and some RAM.

    You’re right. I’ll check later when I get home

    Currently, I have a 1GB GPU so with your statement, I won’t be upgrading that.

    Spend the money on the fastest CPU the MB can take and max out ram?

    Cool, feel free to shoot me a PM if that's easier, or text, whatever works. It will most likely be upgrading the CPU and the RAM possibly. Yeah, if you aren't doing any gaming, that graphics card is fine.

    I've mounted my RTT on my lifted Sequoia by myself, I lifted the RTT onto the bed of my pick up truck, parked the Sequoia along side of it as close as I can. Hopped on the back of the truck, lifted the RTT on its side, slide the bottom of the RTT on top and mounted it all up. I used rags for the RTT to slide across the bars to prevent scratches or damage to the bottom of the RTT. Doable and isn't that bad.

    Why is no one using Kodi? You don't need a PC for porn anymore, that's why you have your TV and unless you're into some high graphics gaming then an off the shelf PC will suffice just fine for normal use.
