Sorry not exactly sure what are the requirements for photoshop software you will be using, certainly this is an i7 4Gen laptop, should be able to run any programs on it, if you are currently using a laptop and you have used the same applications with that many pictures and works fine, then with newer models you shouldn't have any problem. We would also recommend to find more info online. Thank you,

Recommend that you look at the Adobe site for a White Paper called Optimizing Hardware Systems for Adobe Premiere Pro...and Photoshop CC found at: http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/solutions/broadcasting/pdfs/Adobe-Hardware-Performance-Whitepaper.pdf This is a great article because it really explains what the computer components do and how they are interrelated. While Elements isn't specifically addressed, it does include specs for full blown Photoshop. If Photoshop will run well on this (and it meets the specs) than Elements should as too. In terms of storage capacity, this system has should be adequate.

I like using the pen for photoshop, especially once you get into precise and detailed work. This is definitely an expensive item for some added convenience, but if you have the budget, go for it. You'll probably find yourself enjoying it for even regular computer use besides the photo stuff.

I use this computer for many uses, one of which is graphics work with the GIMP (gnu image manipulation program) which is similar to Photoshop (in both capabilities and requirements). This computer can easily run the program, and has enough ram to open/edit good sized documents, but will lag on big files or if you run a processing task of any magnitude. Simpler processing tasks like adjusting brightness and contrast work fine, but lag on big images to the point that it is (slightly) annoying if you use the active preview. I also have a powerful home- built desktop, and it's greater speed is both noticeable and welcome after using the laptop. Short answer: it will work fine, but it is the minimum, more power would be ideal if photo work is your focus. If you only edit photos occasionally, this laptop should perform fine. Disclaimer: I cannot speak on the software aspect of the computer(win8) and how much power it consumes, as I wiped the hard drive immediately after the computer arrived and replaced win8 with Ubuntu 13.04

I upgraded the RAM to 8GB with some extra ram my friend had and it handled Photoshop well, granted I was dealing with some pretty easy stuff just with editing and creating advertisements for a summer internship it got through it swimmingly.

Intuos 6x8 is portable and it should be fine. I see alot of digital artists carrying it and stuffing them into their laptop cases. But my friend who has it broke the thing in like a month (her dad accidently dropped it) so be sure to get the insurance thing and be very careful!

I run Corels' Paint Shop Pro X which can use Photoshop plug-ins without problem. You do have room to upgrade the graphics card if you want to.

yes, for email, FB, Photos and photoshopping, the MacBook 13" is a perfect laptop! It is still very fast, and should be relatively modern for another 5 years or so before becoming outdated.

Yes. I am running Photoshop CS6. Mine is i7. I am still tempted to up the RAM. But you should have no worries.

I have been using my cintiq 13HD for a few months now and so far no issues at all. I never used the 12WX but I do know its a huge improvement from what I have read and from my hands on with the cintiq 13HD. have used it flawlessly in sketchbook pro as well as Photoshop CS6.

I would assume you can being that I do heavy Photoshop n Lightroom programs .. I haven't run my Cabnetware cad on it but this is a really great monster of a notebook being 64 and Win7 instead of 8 ..

I'd recommend it at least. Or, I'd go faster if you can. I'm finding that sometimes with Photoshop there's some speed issues for me, or maybe I'm just picky.

I use it with InDesign and Photoshop a lot and for the most part it is pretty speedy--I tend to have lots of photos and a couple of documents open all at once. If 16 gigabytes RAM had been an option I would have gotten it, but I haven't had any problems so far.

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate, and the Tablet performs great. I have this tablet for several months, using it with Adobe Photoshop CS4 and Adobe Photoshop Elements. Never have a problem. I try a couple of tablets before, and this one is the best.

I have a system built for Photoshop CS6. ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+;AMD FX-8150; 24gigs of DDR3 Ram; PSU 750 and ASUS 2GB GDDR5 card. It performed as I expected. But what made it even more impressive was when I bought a second card and joined the two in crossfire mode. I was impressed how "smooth" it performed running Photoshop. It should be more than adequate for graphic editing with single card.

i am not a hard core programmer, and if you are a hardcore programmer and know your stuff, you might as well order all your own hardware and put your own laptop together. But as far as I know from my use of this machine, I would not trust it to do anything that would require a lot of memory or storage. It offers an asus web cloud storage software, but i don't use this. As far as internet browsing and research goes, how serious you make this is up to you, but the computer seems a bit flaky and will just start clicking on things i don't want it to.hope this was helpful.

I picked up an ep121 at fry's in concord last week, I have a CINTIQ 21UX, and I'm employed as a character artist. The cintiq pen and intuos pens won't work on it as people have already said. The pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop, i think there's a driver fix for this but i haven't bothered with it. Photoshop works best with a keyboard/keypad anyways. Alias sketchbook pro will be your friend. The brushes work great and the program is stroke based. 256 levels of pressure sensitivity, it depends on the artist. It's fine for me, I don't know that my arm has 256 levels of pressure. The line quality is good and it's responsive while drawing. Awesome device for drawing on the go, or sitting on the couch. Any serious work you'll probably want to use a standard computer, but no reason you shouldn't be able to do great things on the ep121. Battery life i get around 3-4.5 hours depending on use. I hope they start shipping these things out to you all soon, I'm loving mine! ps. This thing also runs zbrush pretty well. although it's pointless to try to use zbrush with a resolution os 1200x800, the menu's are too filling. But, it CAN handle a million polygons without much problem. I didn't try maya on it yet. If anyone's interested i can give it a shot.

I agree with Wright there. I don't know about flawless as it all also depends on many factors but all the Adobe apps like Photoshop cc 64 bit and acrobat etc., run very well.
