I would highly reccommend a ATI card, they are just a lot more cost effective right now Have a 770 myself and its good, but the AMD are just cheaper and have a bunch more power for now. Also you need a CPU with 8 threads. Dont get an i5. Get a i7 or a AMD with 8 cores. Everything that takes time needs those. Baking,…

Thanks to the fast access times (compared to HDDs) everything will feel much smoother (OS and programms start faster) and copying files…
