What is the best laptop to use with Photoshop CS5?

I don't want to spend more than $3,000 for this laptop.

I'll also use this laptop for Dreamweaver, Flash and Illustrator.

I'm getting into web development after having been out of commercial art and design for 15 years.

Thank you.

You can get a laptop big Cyberpower PC that will run Photoshop. You must follow certain basic requirements as much as RAM and CPU. My article here: http://robertoblake.com/blog/2011/07/building-a-photoshop-cs5-computer/ has some good general information on what you need. However, here are the basics.

Try to ensure that the hard disk of the diving is 5400-7200 tr / MIN, at least 500GB, 4-8GB of RAM, try to avoid embedded video if you can help it, video 1 GB is ideal, but you can live with 512 MB processor: Dual-Quad Core 2.0 GHz or better.

Your going to want an external hard very portable, not only for backup, but set as you Photoshop Scratch Disk, recommend it be SSD (Solid State Drive)

I highly recommend picking up this laptop: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Xplorer_X6-9200_Gaming_Notebook/

Quad Core, 8 GB RAM to speeds of CPU maximum of 2.2 - 3.0 GHz, 2 GB NVIDIA graphics card, 640 GB HDD, all for under $900

You see the game computers are perfect for Photoshop, the power required to run games more advanced far exceeds the resources necessary to function well Photoshop and other Adobe applications. This should be everything you need and much more.

  • What is the best laptop to use for first Pro 2015 cc?

    I am currently using a Macbook Pro with:

    Processor: 2.9 Ghz Inter Core i7

    Memory: 12 GB 1600 MHz DDr3

    Graphics card: Intel HD Graphics 4000 1526 MB

    Should I update my graphics card?  When I work with .mov, when I read his jerky.

    Eric advice is correct... especially with the 4K more for a standard video.  4K editing or even several stream 1080 p with effects requires a laptop much 'bigger' than what you have.

    In the meantime, before acquring a new machine, you can:

    1. increase the system memory of the laptop, as Eric suggested, of at least 16 GB or more

    2. I suppose that you have only one hard drive Bay and not two in your machine. If you have a spinning mechanical hard drive... is a 7200 RPM or, ESPECIALLY if you have a disk of 5 400 rpm... Replace it with a quality SATA III SSD.

    The best, especially for editing purposes, is the Samsung 850 Pro model... the prices are down and they are now more affordable. Start with a model of this SSD 256 GB or more. Crucial SSD 200 MX are almost the same in quality, but they are cheaper... no other SSD is recommended due to other types of used controllers.

    You would like to clone the image of your hard drive in the new SSD using an external USB 3 docking station to connect the SSD drive in as a "cartridge"... they are cheap (~ $25 - $ 30). Then place the new drive in the internal Bay. Even if you would use that one disc, the new SSD would greatly improve the speed of data read and write operations and overall performance of the computer.

    3. If your machine has 3 USB port, it MAY (or may NOT), be able to take advantage of what we call 'USAP '. This would allow an external drive, such as the Samsung Q1 SSD to operate at nearly the same speed as the internall SSD. For example: a new Samsung 850Pro would go to over 500 MB/sec read and write compared to the humble 150 - 75 MB/s of the HARD original internal drive. A Samsung Q1 might run externally at over 400 MB/sec in reading and enter vs 200 Mbps USB 3 WITHOUT 'USAP '. This would allow you to place all the media, project files, presents a preview and export to the T1, while placing the media cache and the cache files on the disk SSD internal flash for easy removal when the projects are completed. The high-performance T1 can be plugged into other machines to get back to work. Speed training is VERY IMPORTANT and may be the main cause of current sluggish performance, but also inadequate hardware components. Of course, you can ALSO have high speed external port 'Thunderbolt', but using this port storage solutions are very expensive.

    4. MORE IMPORTANT! Since it seems that the GPU on your machine is low, you may need to 'transcode' the images you want to edit in a more EASY codec for your machine to manage.  You can try the DNxHD "visually lossless" codec to Quicktime.  Windows users can also use the "Cineform" free of the Go Pro webssite codec... I don't know if Mac users can use Cineform, being a Windows Guy.

    If you are a serious Editor, you will DEFINITELY need a new machine very soon. For optimal performance, users are building Haswell E Windows desktops with the 5960 X overclocked to 4.5 Ghz CPU and a GPU of NVidia 980ti and either 32 or 64 GB of memory system.  They use a Samsung 850 Pro SSD as a boot drive for the OS, programs and Windows pagefile ONLY.  All other files, go to the new Samsung 950 NVMe PCI DSS Pro who has read more than 2 GB/s speed and 1.5 GB/s write speed AND which is "two-way", meaning that it reads and writes at the same time... Unlike SATA, it relates to one or the other and not BOTH at the same time. For the greater data capacity, a large RAID 0 array off the coast of 3 or moreSamsung 850 SSD Pro motherboard can also provide fast performance.

    DW CS6 using, what would be the recommended CMS to use?

    Ok.  Well boom is a good starting point.  But there are moments where it may not be the right choice.  There is no one-size-fits-all CMS.  They are big, small, and all the rest. So base your choice on the following criteria.

    • needs of the customer,
    • ease of use,

  • What is the best way to use the Y50-70 battery please?

    I bought the laptop y50-70

    but I want to know what is the best method to use the battery.

    and the best way to recharge.

    NOTE *.

    IAM always use the cable and I gave the battery except a few times.

    Thank you very much..

    Best way to use the battery, if your laptop should ALWAYS be connected in-

    Go to eat energy Lenovo - should be a RED icon in the system tray - and choose the mode for a better health of the battery (or battery Protection or health of battery optimized mode).

    I don't know what the energy Manager version you have, but the option must seem similar. What it does is, it will keep your battery charged ONLY up to 60 percent and will increase its service life.

    Hello

    eMachines is owned by Acer, Dell No.

    Here is the information IF you ever want to upgrade a computer to a later version.

    But I can advise you that your eMachine is capable of running Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

    http://www.eMachines.com/EC/en/us/content/drivers.html

    Put your model number in the link above > then search under operating system, provided drivers

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.

    There is no update free from XP to Vista, 7, 8.1, or 10.

    Forget Vista as support extended for Vista SP2 will end April 2017.

    Follow these steps before you buy Windows 7; Windows 7 SP1 to support extended to January 14, 2020.

    Microsoft sells more than 7; Try Amazon.com.

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

    If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

    Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

  • What is the best program to use to create an interactive pdf?

    What is the best program to use to create an interactive pdf?

    You can't use InDesign, it's just an example of something that you could use. It would probably be better to use something that you already have experience with.

    Once you convert the document to PDF, you can open it in Acrobat and have it automatically detect the form fields by selecting: forms > Start Wizard forms

    It will attempt to identify where you intend to add form fields, but there is usually a good bit of customization to do later. The alternative is to manually add the form fields yourself by selecting: forms > add or edit fields

    You can use the forms tools to add text fields, check boxes, buttons, etc. There is a lot of information in the doc help Acrobat on the creation and modification of form fields.

  • What is the best program to use to create an application?

    I want to know what is the best tool to use to make an app for the app store. ? I was using Xcode, but it is a little difficult to use, can someone pls give me some advice. And you must be 18 years old to submit an application?

    How skilled are you programming?  It is IDE Xcode, you don't like or the languages it uses?

    You can use the Terminal, but if you think that Xcode is hard you won't like, either.  There are some alternative programming environments like Novell or Xojo, but those who are not free, and you will also need to learn the languages they use.  Something like the open framework source PhoneGap is another option, if you use the Internet technologies would do what you want.

    Whatever the used development environment, you will need to have the age of majority (18 years in the United States) in order to conclude the contracts necessary to present something to the App Store.  Xcode 7 + will allow you to build and sideload your own mobile applications without needing to use the App Store, but now you are back to where you started.

  • What is the best way to use files recovery

    I work in FM 11 and broke FM a few times. What is the best way to use the recovery files and save them as normal files? So should I filter a window of the Explorer to "recovery" so FM don't ask me if I want to use the older recovery files? Thanks for your help.

    > What is a wash of the MIF?

    1. Save all the files of FM component .mif as MIF format.
      Save the .book as. book.MIF in the MIF format.
    2. Output FM.
      Restart FM.
    3. Open .mifs. Save as FM, replacing the old (FM probably saved files).
    4. Open the. book.MIF, re - register under .book.
      Note: do not open the. first book.MIF and then try to open the component files, or open the files binary pre - MIF.

    FM11 and 12 can have a free add-on as much as the fact in a single operation.

    Washing MIF creates new .book files and FM have syntactically correct data structures (and that may have lack of bad content). They are less likely to crash, but can still have problems.
