Hey, just joined here.
I am interested in building an extremely cheap computer for video editing purposes.
You see, right now I am doing my video editing on a 5 year old compaq system with a 2.0ghz northwood and 512mb of ram... it's pretty slow.
So here's my question:
Say I build an extremely cheap computer with a processor like the amd athlon 64 x2 3600+. That processor is finally in my price range on newegg (about $90).
How much of a performance increase would I see using adobe premiere pro and adobe after effects? Would it be a dramatic increase?
Enough to justify building a new computer?
I'm not really able to compare them because whatever benchmarks I found of one, the other wasn't benchmarked with.
