    Decent laptop for Vegas editing

    Posted by Escojido Machado on April 26, 2018 at 2:30 pm

    Hello,

    I’m looking to purchase a laptop for video editing. Im not trying to do anything big, just like 2 to 4 video tracks, doing highlight videos. And some podcasts. I dont need the top of the line, but just something decent. Does anyone have any recommendations? I would prefer something with a decent video card already inside.

    thanks

    Trust me on this, just pick up a decent ordinary laptop from any store and you are good to go.
    And get your thoughts off which is a better graphics card and most GPU power etc, etc….

    I just got this one for some other production purposes, and it edits with Vegas pretty well. Not sure if this is above your price point or not.

    Gaming laptops are the ones that make good video editing machines
