I recently put this in my old one (made me decide to build a new one) and it took me from minutes to DeNoise to seconds.

That system is still fine on Win 11, which is a free and easy upgrade.

If you're using Lightroom, ACR, or Photoshop, upgrading the GPU will probably give you improved performance. The applications are all GPU intensive, and the card that you have only gives you partial acceleration in those applications. Get a GPU with a minimum of 8 GB GDDR RAM. I'd consider adding more RAM too, if your motherboard supports it, to help working with large files.
