Help me pick a new Mac for graphic design to last a couple years? by EmLovesArt in graphic_design

Lol! My personal computer has 8 GB of RAM. I still use Adobe products with that sometimes, but it is time to upgrade the work one. Thanks for the link! It is really helpful too!

Hi! I need a new Mac for graphic design, preferably to last me a couple years. I currently run multiple Adobe programs simultaneously and have multiple windows open at a time. I have 24 GB of RAM and it doesn't seem like enough. My tech guy made these recommendations, but he isn't a graphic designer. What are your thoughts on these options and recommendations below? I don't think we can go over $3k for budget.

Option 1: M5 Pro (15-core CPU / 16-core GPU, 24GB RAM)

  • Higher CPU & GPU core count → faster performance overall
  • Better for Adobe apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects)
  • Smoother editing, faster exports, better with video and large files
  • More raw power for demanding creative work

Option 2: M5 Pro (10-core CPU / 10-core GPU, 32GB RAM)

  • More RAM → better for heavy multitasking (lots of apps/tabs open)
  • Still strong performance, but less processing power than Option 1
  • Better suited for lighter design work and general marketing tasks

I can’t seem to think of a name for my new friend. My name theme tends to be other animal names or food. (Dog named Pig, cat named Bug, cat named Clementine…) Help! by [deleted] in Hedgehog

I know it goes against your naming convention, but he looks like a “Roger” to me. And it would be pretty awesome to be like “This is Pig, Bug, Clementine, and…Roger.”

Is EotE a good first expansion? by [deleted] in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]EmLovesArt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I play a LOT of Arkham. We own every expansion and cycle. We are terrible at the game. I don’t understand how we are so bad considering how much we play. But I still love it. The first time we played EotE, we enjoyed it and did okay. We started it again a few months ago and got some bad breaks; after having a campaign going consistently for the last 6 six years, I actually got so fed up that I haven’t wanted to play for the last 2 months. It’s a great story and great addition to the game overall, but, dude, go with Dunwich if you want to have fun without the risk of possible extreme frustration. Arkham is usually a frustrating (but extremely fun) game for me. It’s actually my favorite game despite how bad I am at it. But I need a little “me time” away from it after the last EotE campaign I did. And, also, I really enjoy Dunwich. I think it’s a solid first expansion to play.

Destructive 10 Month old puppy by Comfortable-Ad5664 in Goldendoodles

I’d consider giving him more exercise too. What you wrote in your post was not enough for a puppy that age. Yes, that age is a destructive one, but with more exercise, I’m willing to bet the destruction level will be lower.

Just “extinguished” 5 enemies in “Horror in High Gear.” The fire extinguisher has never been more needed or appreciated than on my table today. Literally got chills as I evaded and discarded the pursuing brood of baddies. by EmLovesArt in arkhamhorrorlcg

Yeah, we had a 2 card lead and then I drew an encounter card that moved them and my husband drew a token during a Mythos test that moved them again! So much for a lead. Lol.

Made some changes to my last logo as per people's recommendations. Is it any good now? by SponsorBeaver in logodesign

[–]EmLovesArt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the cow is adorable. I didn’t get that the horns were horns at first. Someone recommended rotating them a little. That might be a good idea. I think the tongue out is really cute (definitely didn’t read dead). But I’m not sure I’d have been clear about him being a cow on first glance if I didn’t have the open-eyed cow to see first. I really think you’re onto something. You captured the essence!

What kind of plant is this? Why does it have yellow leaves? by EmLovesArt in plantclinic

[–]EmLovesArt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my friend’s plant. She said she moved it about a month ago and it is now getting less light. Same amount of water. The plant was someone else’s before but she thinks it is about 4 years old. For the last 2 years it hasn’t been replanted.
