Photoshop - advice choosing my new HP
I am purchasing a new computer and software. I plan to get the HP Pavilion Elite 180t desktop. I've been using the old Photoshop CS for a few years, but I will be upgrading to Photoshop CS4. I will be using it to do layering for posters and for enhancing digital photos. I do not do gaming. I've read about problems some users have with speed and the graphics card. The Adobe site shows that they have tested two of the following graphics cards. What else should I know before I choose one of the following upgrades, if any? Thanks for any advice you can give.
