Film editing is one of the few common examples of where you need a machine with high specs across the board - meaning it isn't going to be cheap. You will need a powerful CPU, lots of RAM, lots of storage (fast storage!), and a powerful GPU as well.
That normally means you should be looking at "gaming" laptops, as they tend to have all of these things and they're designed to run for hours at a time under heavy loads, which means (at least in theory) they should have good cooling systems to deal with the thermal loads. It also means that gaming laptops tend to be big, thick, and heavy - not to mention expensive.
Obviously your budget is your biggest limitation, and depending on what it is, you may have to compromise on specs to get something you can afford, but understand that this is going to affect your day-to-day usage and especially your rendering times.
I'd assume that you're going to have a couple of NVMe SSDs for storage. If you're doing a good amount of editing, you're going to wear out your SSDs a lot faster than you'd imagine - maybe after only 2-3 years. That's because you'll be writing a ton of data to the drive, and SSDs only have a fairly small (in video terms) amount of write cycles before they are worn out and fail. That's one reason I would never get a Mac - the SSDs are soldered onto the motherboard and can't easily be replaced. Anyway, expect your SSDs to fail after a couple of years and have a budget and plan to replace them when the time comes.
I would save my money for an msi better hardware and can handle the load
None. Id never use a Dell for video editing.
any better idea for laptops? i have a macbook but with small ram.
Believe it or not a Mac book with an m3 is your best bet, if not, go for a machine that has gaming chops. Like an acer nitro, or an Asus ROG or TUF, or an HP Omen.
They all will have the ram, storage, and specialized graphics cards to make it better.
so gaming computers? can you help me out i need help with selling mine and buying a batter one on a budget. desktops definitely doing better in terms of performance but def need a laptop. mine died since i bought it back in 2011...
also does mac mini work well?
A Mac mini would work good. It may be better to ask you what your budget is. If I know your budget, and how bulky of a machine you wnat. Like does it have to be super thin, or can it be somewhat thick, that would be helpful too. I'm more than happy to help.
Feel free to ad me if you want.
sure!
