Whilst I'm not completely clueless, assume I know nothing so please over explain everything.
I need a new editing PC. I use Lightroom and Photoshop. I want a desktop. I have a budget of £500 (yes I know that's low, I'm not expecting miracles). I do not have an operating system. The last time I built a PC was c.2010 - but I do have a tower with a Corsair PSU from that era. I don't need a screen but my monitor is just a basic sRGB 1080p unit. I don't intend to change this at present.
I have been using a laptop with a 1.7ghz dual core Intel processor, 8gb ram, a 1gb Nvidia graphics card and an SSD for the operating system (but not programme files). The processor is a huge bottleneck.
Knowledgeable help is very welcome and very much needed!
