For all of you CS4 power users out there--I just built the Ultimate CS4 PC over at PCMag.com.
You ever try to open 10 high-res pictures in Photoshop at once and have your PC grinds to halt? For about 4 grand, I can make sure that never happens to you again. The secret is in the RAM. With 32-bit Windows, your machine can't use more than 4GB of RAM, no matter how many sticks you've got in there. If you bulk up your OS to 64-bit Windows, though, you can pretty much use all the RAM you can cram into your motherboard.
I've got a few more tricks up my sleeve that you can use to build your own crack CS4 system or just to upgrade your PC. I'll also suggest some pretty cool peripherals, like the Wacom Intuous 4 graphics tablet, that let you do away with the keyboard altogether when using Photoshop.
