I am going to edit a wedding video and I have a laptop with a 2 core intel i7 processor (max 2.7 GHz) with 16 GB of RAM and an m275x gcard. The other computer i could use is one that has an i5 processor @ 3.6 GHz and 8gb of RAM and a GT 610 gcard. Which would be better?
 
Solution
The i5 at 3.6 GHz. Consider a desktop as desktop processors are generally much faster than laptop processors. All i7's are not created equally.
