Recommend a gpu please ?

[venomx]

My uncle is trying to work with large high resolution photos ( 26mb and 6240x4160 ) and it lags...

He has an intel quad core 3.6ghz processor and 16gb of ram

I suggested he gets a discrete gpu as his current one is built into the cpu. Is this good advice ?
He has a 500w psu. Any recommendations?

Would a new cpu help ?

I think you'll need to provide more system info, i.e. the CPu era, memory architecture and the current GPU would be a bare minimum to allow people to step in and advise. Once you start upgrading, you might need a new case, PSU, SSD etc as well, but you've not given us much to go on...

Ok would more ram not help?

he doesn’t have the 8pin or 16pin connector from his psu for the gpu so I’m guessing he’s quite restricted?

which cpu would you recommend
