To whom that may listen,
I'm completely lost trying to research upgrade advice, mainly Intel 12th Gen vs Ryzen, but will explain...
I'm a graphic designer and have had a PC that I built around 10 years ago, see spec below.
650D Case TX 650W V2 PSU + H80 CPU Cooler
Corsair Obsidian 650D Gaming Midi Tower - Black
Intel Core i7-2600K 3.40GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor
GTX 1060 6GB
Asus P8P67 Intel P67
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz DualQuad Channel Kit
Win 10
Corsair F3 Solid State Hard Drive 240
Samsung SH-B123LBSBP 12x BluRay ROM 16x DVD±RW Lightscribe SATA-II Optical Drive - Black (OEM)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB SATA 6Gbs 32MB Cache - OEM (ST31000524AS)
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7.1 Sound Card - OEM (30SB057000000)
Edimax EW-7612UAN 300Mbps High-Gain Wireless-N USB Adapter
I use Adobe CC daily and increasingly more Fusion 360 or Blender, Keyshot and Marvellous Designer etc.
I also have a Wacom Companion 2 which is also now dated and having application support issues.
I have use of a Macbook Pro (2019 Intel atm) supplied by my work, but it isn't the best spec and applications are limited.
Although my PC build isn't the most powerful it has done well.
I have been offered a huge spec PC Build for £2k, it's a 5-6 year old system but was and still is a monster.
i7 6950X O.C - M.2 + SSD - Rampage ED10 Mobo - Titan X Pascal 12GB X2 SLI - 32GB Dominator Platinum - Watercooled - RM 1000 PSU
But I feel I could get a similar 2022 system possibly a bundle upgrade) with 1 GPU and higher Core/Thread CPU for almost the same price using some of my old system parts, IDK.
OR
Workstation Laptop (I like the portability factor)
OR
Wacom Mobile Studio Pro (I like the portability factor and that it's a Drawing tablet/Cintiq. Worried about upgrade options and future app support)
Again, I'm lost. What to do?
Thank you.
