....Picturing Johnny's sketch in my head right now...Here's what I did at my last job. Find the quietest, dorkiest IT guy you have and make friends with him. After a while he will load any program on your computer and get you whatever you need. Not to mention, you will make a new friend you never expected to make and he will be interesting and fun to hang out with at work. It's a win-win situation.
However, make sure you delete all the illegal stuff on your computer before he gets promoted to a different job because the next IT guy is going to get VERY upset and literally lock your computer down so hard you can barely check your email without asking.
How have I never heard this acronym before? GOLD!There's an old saying.
This is a PEBKAC error
Your computer is fine. Right click the task bar, open task manager. See how much ram is in use next time it happens. Probably out of ram.
Dell for the win.Seems like a post like this comes up every few months. Same question, what kind of computer do I need?
Maybe it makes sense with how fast technology changes.
My main computer is a Dell and I'm in the midst of updating all my computers to Dell.
I have 32Gb of RAM and also primarily use Illustrator and it's pretty zippy.
100% vouch for sign burst as well. Casey is amazing and his products are excellent.www.signburst.com..... the Inferno series should handle whatever you need it to do, and the tech support is the best I've seen anywhere.
What are you hearing on the i9? I have 11th gen i9I just finished setting up the 3rd lenovo workstation here in the office.
Step 1, reinstall windows.
Step 2, profit.
(Still haven't settled on what I'm putting together for myself. I was looking at building a dual xeon workstation with some laughable amount of ram, until I came across the dozens of posts on corel forums where xeon users were having fits. The 14th gen i9 is an embarrassment, and 13th gen isn't going down in price. Seriously considering something like a signburst or puget systems build, but then I don't get to assemble anything...)
Just that the 14th gen was the most incremental improvement, to the point that reviewers are comparing a 14900 to a great bin 13900, both are capable of hitting 6ghz, same core counts, same everything basically except configuration out of the box. It's not bad, just embarrassing. Then to top it off, 13th gen is like $550, and 14th is $599. 12th gen is about $350 for comparison.What are you hearing on the i9? I have 11th gen i9

They have the new chips M3, you can easy last all day on the battery without plugging in.
