I need to build a PC for serious video editing.
It will not be used for gaming.
Two monitors need to be connected.
I will probably take the Core i7 2600.
I'm looking mainly at Gigabyte motherboards, but will consider Asus (or Intel) if they prove to be a better choice.
I understand from reviews, that the Intel HD3000 built in graphics card will give me a big advantage in rendering videos. Is that correct?
I was looking at the Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3-iSSD, but it only has 1 HDMI connector, and no VGA/DVI connectors.
If I install an additional graphics card for the monitors, will the Intel HD3000 advantage still be effective?
If I go for lower end motherboards, such as the GA-H67A-USB3-B3 would I still get the same performance, while being able to use the onboard graphics?
Thanks in advance
