Which laptop would be better for video editing?

joimaiveer · Dec 14, 2017

Here are 2 laptops that interest me:

Acer aspire e5 i5-6200 2.3ghz 4gb ram 1tb

Acer f5 i5-4210 1.70ghz 8gb 1tb

Thanks for looking!

Neither is good imo. If between the two, go with 8gb ram. I7 will be better due to doubled threads and 16 go ram is good to have, 8 gb is minimum. Ssd is also crucial for editing speed, hdd is just way too slow. Budget on laptop? In US?

The one with 4gb can be upgradable. My budget is $250 - $400. Will get a used laptop. Located in Boston, MA. I found another one Acer i7 2670qm 2.2ghz 8gb 250gb ssd for under 300.
