<p>Thank you all for your suggestions</p>

<p>Hello guys,<br> I created the 160.000 X 300.000 pixels image. <br> <br />When saved on Hard Disk the file size is 4.7 GB, but while working on photoshop it says 110/120 GB.<br /><br />Problem 1) With my current laptop it takes more than 20 hours to save it. (I saved it with compression thou)<br /><br />Problem 2) The image also contains a lot of layers, and when I start to work on the file, like adding objects and moving layers (please consider I'm not using filters, i'm simply creating a kind of mosaic), at the begininng Photoshop responds fast. But more things I do, more time it takes to esecute the command. After 20/30 minutes it becomes very slow, taking up to 2/3 minutes to move a layer or to add a new object... And the time keep increasing up to 5 minutes... (I tried also to remove "undo actions" but improvement is marginal)<br /><br />Problem 3) I stopped to work on it as was strenuos and as I decided I need a new desktop for this project. But when I will resume my work, i estimateed the images size may increase over 10 Gb.<br /><br /><strong>This is my current Laptop: DELL INSPIRION 15-3521 (Pentium 2127U 1.9 GHz / RAM 4GB / HD 500GB / Win 8.1 64 bit)</strong><br /><br />So this is the new desktop configuration i would like to check with you:<br /><br />CPU: i7-6850K 3,6 GHz<br />RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws DDR4 64GB (4x16GB) 3.000<br />GPU: Sapphire AMD RX 480 8GB<br />STORAGE: Samsung 960 EVO NVMe SSD 500 GB<br />STORAGE: WD Black 3.5 7.200RMP 2TB<br /><br /><br />According to your experience do you think will it be enough to work on my project?<br /><br />Do you have any suggestions to change some of the components?<br> <br /><strong>Please consider my goal is to reduce drastically the saving time and being able to work on the image without minutes idle time beetween commands.</strong><br> <br />(If printed the image will be big as much as a soccer field. But I don't have to print it.<br />When I will have finished to work on it, I will use krpano software to tile the image and making it viewable/zommable like google map)<br> <br />Thanks a lot,<br />Ciao<br />Kel</p>

Thank u guys for your answers. The 14.159 photos will come from people. I'm not sure i can use one of those software suggestions, as the mosaic come with a background. Sorry for my english, i try to explain. The background for the mosaic will be 170.000 x 300.000. The background is like a drawing. On this "background", i will paste the 14.159 images individually. (It might takes months, but I'm ok with that). The 14.159 photographs will not cover all the background pitcure. Once this file 170.000 x 300.000 is ready, i will use "Maptiler" software to divide it in tiles, and to turn it into a like Google Map zoommable image. Hope this clear, Thx Luigimaz

<p>Hello,<br> I'm a new user of this forum, and I am not a computer expert either.<br> I would like to create a large image as a photomosaic of 14.159 pictures.<br> I calculated that, not to lose definition,<br> the final output file should be around: 170.000 pixels X 300.000 pixels<br> It will be a kind of Panoramic Photo, but it will be the mosaic of all the 14.159 single photographs.<br> My question is:<br> Which are the hardware requirements (Processor/RAM/Graphic Card) to work with comfort on such large scale image?<br> Thank you in advance for your answers,<br> Best Regards,<br> Luigi Mazzei</p>
