Best Laptop for Video Editing?




Leo


So I have been saving up money for a new laptop for awhile now and am looking to invest it in the best possible laptop for primarily video editing. Currently my laptop has plenty of memory and ram but the processor is only at 1.5 GHz and is an HP Laptop. I think that there's intel processor's with a 3.6 Ghz and wondering if I should try for something like that? Or if there is a specific laptop or even just a laptop that has the compatibility to upgrade to a higher processor like that it would be great.

The use would involve heavy RAW filed photo and video editing along with special effects design and music editing.
Thank you.



Answer
You need something with a good processor, and a ***tload of RAM.

Look for:
i7-3610QM, i7-3630QM, i7-3840QM
16GB+ RAM
Graphics card doesn't matter.
256GB+ Solid State Drive

You didn't list your budget, but this build could easily cost upwards of $1500 or more.


I rarely say this on YAnswers, but a desktop is a more practical solution for heavy video editing if you want it done fast.
Disregard that if you really want a laptop.

What Laptop is Best for Video Editing?

I'm becoming more and more interested in video editing, so I personally would like to get a laptop(no matter what the price) that would both perform great for video editing and also for everyday needs(internet and typing). Any brand of laptop would be great! Thanks!


Answer
Buying a laptop is a complicated decision which will probably affect you daily for the next few years.

In addition to price and specs, you want to consider things such as ease-of-use, speed, reliability, stylish-design and tech-support.

Different people would have different opinions.

Therefore, I would recommend you to check ProCompare.com (http://www.procompare.com/top/Notebooks). They have a recommendation engine that ranks laptops and other tech products based on ratings and reviews from a community of trusted IT professionals. They also have a cool personalization slider that lets you personalize the results based on the criteria that are most important to YOU.

Hope you'll find this answer useful...
