DIDO.1 20,804 Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Iv bought a decent camera to film some short fieldsports clips. But my laptop can't edit them, it takes ages and is all jumpy. Obviously I need something a bit more powerful.....if that's the correct description, I know feck all about computers. Iv been told to get a desk top, but I don't want to pay much. What should I be looking for? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonjon79 13,340 Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Your laptop might be ok - it might just need bigger memory to handle the file sizes and a better editing suite. I don't know much about it either but, if you have one of those independent computer repair places local, it might be worth taking it in for advice. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
