Hi, I'm considering replacing my old computer with one that would let darktable run better. I'm seeking advices on which hardware pieces are the most important.
About RAM, I currently have 4 Gb and it's clearly not much for dt, so 8 seems to be a minimum to work comfortably. Do you think it's worth paying a bit more to get 16 Gb? Or 32 Gb? Should I priviledge the CPU or the graphics card? I mean, if I get a good graphics card, is it still worth paying a high-end CPU or will most of the processing be delegated to the GPU anyway? OTOH, many CPU (like core i5/i7) already have a built-in GPU so I was wondering whether having an expansive CPU and no graphics card could be a better idea.
