Best laptop for video editing?

Q. I am in desprate need of a new laptop and my video editing sucks right now. I have a Dell and I use Windows Movie Maker and it is awful. I need a new laptop that has a great webcam and great for video editing. Any suggestions? Thanks!


Answer
This MSI laptop should be more than good enough for anything you'll ever need it to do.

Intel Core i5-2410M 2.3GHz Dual Core CPU
4GB DDR3 RAM
500GB Hard Drive
nVIDIA GeForce GT520M 1GB Dedicated Graphics

£515

If thats alittle overkill for what you need then here is a cheaper one that is still pretty decent.

Intel Core i3-2310M 2.1GHz Dual Core
4GB DDR3 RAM
320GB Hard Drive
Intel HD2000 Graphics

£420

Both laptops have an integrated camera.

I'm building a new laptop for editing video and music and I have a question about my hard drive.?

I'm getting the most expensive HP Pavilion with a 2.6 GHz i7 processor, 16 gb of ram, 2gb NVIDIA graphics card, etc. I'm torn between getting a 1.5 TB hard drive at 7200 rpm, or I can get a 160 gb SSD for about 60 more dollars. Just how much better will the SSD be and why? (In layman's terms please). Will I even notice a difference? Thanks in advance!


Answer
SSD is meaning solid state drive which is a very fast harddrive that uses laser technology to read information. A regular harddrive wud have a spinning disk inside spinning at 7200 rpm meaning 7200 rate per minute which is like average decent speed people buy these days.
SSD can go above 10,000 rpm which isn't the correct unit of measurement but its faster than 10,000rpm. I wouldn't go for it because since you have a laptop for video editing and music, u wud prefer the harddrive that holds the most memory. Get the 1.5TB cuz the SSD with 160 GB doesnt compare to the harddrive with 1500 GB.
