    Semi-Rig upgrade. Components almost finalised, need suggestions.

    1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? ERDAS, ArcInfo, Oracle, Adobe suite (PS, LR, Premier pro) Not much of a gamer really. The PC will remain on for days together after image processing batches are queued up. 2. What is your...
