HI, trying to assemble my first customac mini, I'd be using it for coding iOS and OSX apps(xcode) mostly, plus some graphic design on Pixelmator and some other vectorial apps, plus the basic activities everyone does on a computer nowadays, maybe some sound editing(basic), not intense video editing, but you never knows when you have to grab a video file and doing basic editing on it.
So far, I've planed to add 8 or 16GB RAM, Gigabyte GA-H170N, Intel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz , among the other components listed for this CustoMac Mini, so, what is the difference in performance between a CustoMac Mini like this with video card and without it? Planing to add EVGA GeForce GT 740 2GB DDR5 is it worth the extra $100? is it enough for the above tasks the Intel HD Graphics 530? I've heard about some issues between the HD 530 and the sleep feature, don't know how true they are.
Well I'd appreciate any input you have on this case, thanks in advance!
