Great tips there Nathan which I'm sure has saved me a lot of pain down the line. Thanks for sharing.

Your fact based explanation is quite eye-opening. Thank you always for your helpful tips, Nathan!

Love your vids... Been a Realtor for 10 years and am now getting into Real Estate Photography. One thing I didn't factor in when buying my camera equipment was having to apparently also buy a new computer that has the capable RAM necessary for editing with Photoshop and Lightroom without getting bogged down. What would you recommend?.. I'm hearing 16GB minimum, someone else said 64GB is best and almost necessary... After spending almost $4000 in cam equipment I want to get something good but not overkill because this is getting expensive fast. Thanks in advance.

Great info, Nathan, Thanks!
Adobe cannot be ignorant of this memory leak situation. I hope they'll be releasing a fix soon.

Thanks for this! My Laptop has all the same numbers as yours. Changing the zip just made lightroom and photoshop much quicker ! Appreciated

Thank you, Nathan, that was really interesting, I’m a little surprised by what’s going on.

Very helpful information here. Thank you! I noticed every time I use Canon’s DPP application for my outdoor pics, the fan comes on quite immediately and only after applying minor changes before saving them to reimport to LRC. I use it sparingly for this reason.

Great Video again PhotoScholar, thank you! I'll need to update my 486sx with a 4Gb Voodoo GPU soon. ;-)

Just curious to know if these specs are good enough to run Photoshop well

i"ve got an Intel i7 7700HQ
32gb of memory running at 3200mhz
and an Nvidia 4GB 1050ti
and i am using an Samsung SSD

I just wanna know if these specs are good enough for another year or should i upgrade now ?

Great tips. I use 128gb ddr5 ram on my build. Essentially everything loads within a few seconds at most but even still you can see the power adobe uses.
