Mp4 · 31 Aug 2009 at 22:46

Hi all,

Atm im after a new motherboard, memory, & processor to do viedo editing on.
Maybe looking at dual core but want to be able to upgrade in the future. I have no idea on prices as of yet i have a 500w PSU also if this is enough?

Thanks

Correct me if I'm wrong but gaming wasn't even mentioned ? So why a £112 graphics card when a £30 one would do fine and free up money for a faster CPU and hard disk where it would benefit video editing ?

Or even none at all, the 785 has integrated graphics which should be more than enough for any 2D work and some 3D stuff on the side.
