I am pretty clueless when it comes to GPUs, and really don't even know how important the GPU is for the level of video editing I will be doing (nothing really high-end). So, I THINK this system will do a reasonably good/fast job with my video editing/publishing projects given these specs/components (correct?), with the possible exception of the 'graphics controller' side of the house. Graphics: integrated Intel HD Graphics 2500

120 GB Crucial BX500 SSD (where I will store the video files while being edited/produced/uploaded, to utilize the speed of the SSD) SO, I decided that I was going to need to upgrade to a reasonable machine, and so I set out to find the best, cheapest desktop PC that I could, that would do the job.Īlong those lines, I just bought a used Dell OptiPlex 7010 MT (Mini-Tower), with these specs:Ģ. I have done virtually zero video editing before, but recently I've tried to publish a few short videos on youtube and found that it take RIDICULOUS amounts of time to edit/create/process the video files, due to the low-end laptop I was using.

However, I am starting a small business, and I need to do some HD video editing/publishing, mainly for youtube, to promote my products. I am not well versed at all with computer builds/components. Please indulge one more newb, with graphics card questions!
