Hey guys, well I'm here to finally get a PC built, I'm tired of buying these pre built horrible in store bought computers.

Now im not very computer savvy and that's why I'm here and I'm going to make this really short so I can get some advice.

Is it possible to get a Gamer PC built and to also have it be my Normal computer, as in do Art work on (I'm a Graphic Designer) for Photoshop,Illustrator and Indesign? and if So How much would it be in theory? I just got a New job, its not much but I want to save up and my range is 900-1100? yea I'm cheap...but if I have to spend more I will just need a little help on this thanks guys.

at that budget you looking at ode 0.

a pc is not for just one use, a work pc and game pc share many parts, the difference is few things.

so to answer your question, a gaming pc can easily do Photoshop, Illustrator and etc, the difference is that you may need more ram then a gaming pc, so for example if the gaming system has 8GB of ram, for heavy Photoshop and Illustrator you may need 16GB of ram, other parts stay the same.

here is ode 0

I knew that is what you meant, they keep changing those so it hard to keep up with.
