Best Computers For Video Editing

Information and Videos from CNET




When you are looking for a computer to edit your HD video on it is very important to look at the computer's specs. By far, Desktops are going to be a better option when editing video because they can offer more speed, memory and higher media cards than in laptops. Another key feature to look for is a Blueray DVD Burner or an HD DVD Burner. Otherwise, you can transfer and edit your footage in HD but when you go to burn it onto a DVD, it will not be HD unless you have an HD Burner or Blueray Burner. 
Here are a list of the minimum specs that I would recommend for buying a computer for editing:
Fastest Core i7 or i5 you can get *watch out for Core i7 laptops that are only 1.5Ghz, because thats not a lot of power per CPU for editing AVCHD files. (Your laptop will be strained) 
You want a 7200RPM Hard Drive of at least 500GB and at least 8GB Memory
HD or Blueray DVD Burner
*Make sure the laptop/desktop has all the ports that your camera needs to transfer your video from you camera to your computer
