HD Editing PC

^ For HD Video editing??

4GB isnt enough under Windows 7.

He'd be better with something closer to Dangerous' post at the beginning of the thread. Or if an AMD spec must get posted in a video editing thread, atleast account for a decent amount of RAM aswell.

I'd actually recommend either I7 or 1055T and atleast 6gb RAM although more would be better/recommended.
No point going near I5's as the reason for the I7 recommendations is the HT.

I7 > 1055t > I5 When it comes to video editing, that is my experience. I'm not talking benchmarks, In my new job i get to play with them allllll. :p

Obviously, extra RAM cannot be added at a later date!

Also,the OP also has a maximum budget of £300 to spend.

Yeah, I suppose it does come in under budget. But I still maintain if the OP wants an HD editing system which is what he's asking for, it needs more RAM. But as you say, He could very well buy more later.

OP if you are able to stretch your budget, I would go with CAT-THE-FIFTH's spec but with more RAM. If not I'd definately try and upgrade your Ram in future, as it'll make a lot of difference to editing with just the 4gb
