Hello,

I am thinking about shooting some video in 1080p HD, but I don't think my laptop could handle editing well, it's an old one with dual core 2.2ghz and 256MB nvidia card.

So I am thinking about building a computer for this purpouse.

Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: Unknown, I just want to get a general idea of what this might look like.
Budget Range: $1000
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Video Editing
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
Parts to Upgrade: (e.g.: CPU, mobo, RAM): N/A
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: No
Location: Tulsa, Oklahoma
Parts Preferences: No
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080, since I will be editing 1080p video
Additional Comments: Computer will be used for video editing

Thanks a lot.
