WHAT IS A
WEB
DESIGNER ?

3. • A computer with an extensive sized
RAM: 16 GB

clear graphic display.

would be suited to a web designer
because it provides more cache memory
which makes a faster speed of access.

ESSENTIAL
COMPONENTS
DO THEY
NEED?

4. • To upgrade the monitor it would cost
approximately £1000- £2000
• A key upgrade is the RAM. To upgrade
to more storage space it would cost
approximately £100 for 16 GB.
• This computer does not have much
space to upgrade to a new CPU and if it
was to be upgraded it would cost
approximately £100- £150
• This computer only has 2 PCI slots and
to provide more slots on the
motherboard it would enable more
space to insert graphics cards and TV
cards. To do this, it would cost
approximately £500 but it would be
more cost efficient to buy a
motherboard with more PCI slots or buy
a graphics card that can fit into other
slots.

computer you would have to upgrade
your motherboard which has an
approximate cost of £50-£100

files to upload to the website.
• An optional peripheral that could also be of use
is a webcam so that the web designer can
upload video files and also video chat
meetings with his managing partners.
