I'm new so if this has been answered elsewhere, feel free to just point me in the right direction.
I'm designing a PC primarily for image processing with PixInsight. Someone else is building it for me so don't assume I know anything techy.
Do I need a scratch disc?
Do I need a solid state hard drive?
Is this a sensible monitor choice? HP Pavilion 32 QHD Monitor, 32 Inch, Quad HD (2560 x 1440), 100 Percent sRGB Colour, USB-C (DP 1.2), HDMI, DP, Black
Any comments on the choices below?
