My system is getting old (2009) running win7. It has struggled with LR5.X for some time now and I have been eagerly awaiting this LR6 in hopes that the GPU speed increase was a true rumor. Now that I know it is real, I will invest in a new graphics card. Right now I have a NVIDIA Geforce GT220 1GB and I'm thinking of picking up a GTW 750 2GB to help my aging system deal with LR6.
Does it have a 4-core cpu ?, or is it a dual-core ?
What GHz ?
Edit: I forgot to mention that yes, I am seeing a fair amount of speed improvement while simply moving from one photo to another in the Develop module. But not so much if I work inside an edited image.
Maybe the balance between cpu cores and cpu GHz on your computer is not suitable for optimum performance in Lr.
You might do a lot better to get a new m/b and cpu and RAM rather than a new graphics card. Anything from 2009 will be a lot slower than todays stuff. Even the graphics built into the latest cpu is speedy enough for Lr, and will run a 4k screen. A new graphics card would be icing on the cake but the other gear is what is really slowing everything down.
