WACOM CINTIQ 16/ PRO

Wacom refers to as a "creative pen display," lets an artist draw, navigate menus, and click buttons on its 15.6-inch screen using the included Wacom Pro Pen 2 stylus. It's an interactive monitor, attaching to a computer rather than running its own resident programs as would a tablet.

SSD (SOLID STATE DRIVE)

A solid-state drive (SSD) is a new generation of storage device used in computers. SSDs use flash-based memory, which is much faster than a traditional mechanical hard disk. Upgrading to an SSD is one of the best ways to speed up your computer.

STYLUS PEN

A stylus is a pen shaped instrument with a round rubber piece that moves effortlessly across touchscreen devices. It is an instrument used to navigate on a phone or tablet. A stylus is used by placing it on the touchscreen surface. Some styluses include a pen incorporating 2 writing instruments into 1 tool.

DELL XPS 15 | Laptop

Dell XPS ("eXtreme Performance System") is a line of consumer-oriented high-end laptop and desktop computers manufactured by Dell, the laptop specs is good for photo editing.

Hard Disk Drive (HDD) 

has been around for so long that all drives are generally referred to as Hard Drives. In recent years, however, the Solid State Drive (SSD) has become ever more popular. In a nutshell, the difference between a Hard Disk Drive and a Solid State Drive is that the one has rotating disks inside it and the other is solid, with no moving parts. This, in effect, causes the SSD to be able to access data extremely fast, whereas the HDD has to wait for the rotating disks to warm up before you can access the files.

GRAPHICS CARD 

Both Photoshop and Lightroom Classic will benefit from having a fast, dedicated graphics card. Although Photoshop has been supporting graphics hardware acceleration for some time now, previous versions of Lightroom were under-performing with the graphics processor turned on. However, it seems that the latest version Lightroom Classic is now taking advantage of the graphics processor. We recommend you enable it and see what it does. Note that if Lightroom decides your graphics card is not strong enough for hardware acceleration, it will automatically disable this feature completely, to avoid negative performance issues.

CPU 

The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the brains of your computer. For video editing this will have an impact on how your video editing software performs. The CPU also will determine your rendering performance. Make sure you have a high speed processor in your editing workstation is critical!

RAM

Random Access Memory (RAM) is responsible for storing data for the programs running on your computer. Most computers off the shelf come with 2GB of RAM which is not enough for video editing which eats up RAM like crazy. In order to have decent video editing performance you'll need a minimum of 4GB RAM but upgrading to 16GB is even better. Essentially more RAM = faster video editing.

STORAGE

Video files take up a lot of space because they contain large amounts of information from the camera. Typical 500GB SATA storage in a computer is not enough so upgrading your storage is a necessity. We recommend adding 2TB internal or external storage.
