They didn&#8217;t have the horsepower to get renders out in a manageable fashion, and trying to edit on them was (and still is for underpowered laptops) a complete hassle. But, with the advent of new, more powerful computer parts available to consumers \u2014 such as implemented SSDs and slimmer GPUs \u2014 laptops are now a viable option for professional editors.<\/p>\n<p>So, we&#8217;ve compiled a list of laptops that can expedite your rush edits, or even plug into a monitor to create a portable workstation. This list includes laptops across the entire spectrum of price range, including some of our favorite choices for different types of editors. Let&#8217;s dive in!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"things-you-should-look-for-in-an-editing-laptop\">Things You Should Look for in an Editing Laptop<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/758S0LshojY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;start=134&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>(The intro part of this video will explain all you need to know about computer components.)<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re unfamiliar with what you need to look for in a computer before purchasing, here&#8217;s a few things you need to know:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the brains of the operation. It performs most processing tasks within your PC, so you should prioritize it for editing computers. Performance is measured by Hz and core-count, so the higher the number on each of those, the more power it has (Ex: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor).<\/li>\n<li>The GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is important in its own right for rendering and processing graphics. GPUs are measured in Graphic Memory, from 4GB-12GB. The higher the number, the more powerful the GPU (Ex: MSI Radeon RX 580 8 GB ARMOR OC Video Card). If you work in After Effects or DaVinci Resolve a lot, look for a good GPU in your laptop.<\/li>\n<li>Always buy SSDs (Solid State Drives) over HDDs (Hard Disk Drives). They can access information ten times faster than HDDs, and they can increase your editing speeds by accessing the footage seamlessly.<\/li>\n<li>RAM is not going to technically \u201cspeed up\u201d your PC. Certain programs use a certain amount of RAM, so more RAM in your computer lets you open more programs at once.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These are all of the specs you need to look for in a laptop, along with what type of monitor it comes with. If you&#8217;re editing 4K footage, you should probably invest in a 4K laptop. A helpful tip you should remember is when you&#8217;re looking at laptops, if it&#8217;s marketed as a &#8220;gaming&#8221; laptop, odds are the specs will prioritize CPU\/GPU power over peripherals \u2014 like a touchscreen or &#8220;tablet&#8221; functionality.<\/p>\n<p>Now if you&#8217;re looking to build your own, get your literal hands on these items, here&#8217;s a comprehensive list for you. This helps you have a better understanding of what you need to edit a film.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/how-to-build-video-editing-pc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How to Build an Editing PC for Remote Work (on a Budget)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"the-budget-problem\">The Budget Problem<\/h3>\n<p>So, if you&#8217;re thinking of buying a new laptop for video editing, budget is probably the first thing you think of. Now, of course, the more money you spend, the better laptop you&#8217;ll get. When buying an editing laptop, you might have to stretch your budget in the range of $1K-3K, which seems like a huge investment. But, trust me, it&#8217;s worth it. Unlike a PC you build yourself, you aren&#8217;t able to switch out your components as the years go by, with programs requiring more computing power and updated parts. That means it&#8217;s good to over-estimate your power requirements because in a few years, you don&#8217;t want your laptop to be underpowered once certain parts become obsolete.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"low-budget-recommendation-lenovo-legion-y7000p-gaming-laptop-1069\">Low-Budget Recommendation: Lenovo\u2122 Legion\u00ae Y7000P Gaming Laptop \u2014 $1,069<\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Mo7ogbRSC6Q?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a laptop for around $1K that can perform all the tasks you need, I can&#8217;t recommend the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lenovo.com\/us\/en\/laptops\/legion-laptops\/legion-y-series\/Lenovo-Legion-Y540-15\/p\/81SY00MLUS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Legion Y7000P<\/a> enough.
