Editing Hardware
Hey I'm wondering what hardware everyone uses to edit their photos on. When I first got into photography ~15 years ago I edited on a MacBook Pro. And I did until it died in 2018.
I decided to build a desktop PC at that point as it was cheaper, and I didn't really need a laptop at that point. And I was a bit fed up with Apple - I also use Android. So I built the AMD based desktop. And it has been pretty decent over the years.
I use Adobe and Lightroom for editing. With the new AI tools, IE Denoise, I have noticed significant slowdowns and crashes of lightroom on my PC. I can usually denoise a couple photos. Which are estimated to take 25 or so seconds, before it crashes.
Does anyone else have issues with lightroom on PC? I know the computer is on the older side now, but it's still average or above average based on the specs.
I'm asking this because I recently bought my wife a M3 MacBook Air and I decided to put lightroom on it so I can edit while not at my desk and it is significantly more stable and efficient. The AI tools are estimated to take longer than my PC but I have no issues with doing back to back photos etc.
So now I'm wondering if I want to make the switch back to Apple and upgrade my desktop soon to the M4 Mac.
Thoughts?
Thanks
