I'm not sure how it would be with that particular program but I do know that it works really well for movies, video and gaming. My son and I play minecraft and skyrim on it all the time and have no lag or filching problems. I hope this can help a bit.

I cannot answer your question. I only know I wish I had my old system back and running like it was new.

I've never used that application, but it would probably perform decently--especially if you upgraded to 16G of RAM. Although, looking briefly at the GPU specs for Sony Vegas Pro 12, it would run better on a machine with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570. Of course then you're looking at ~$250 just for the graphics card, never mind the rest of the computer--so that may not be an option. The p6-2350 has an AMD Radeon HD 7560D, which isn't bad--so bottom line I'm guessing it would be ok.

Haven't done much but very smooth and fast. Wife is graphic designer and she cannot bog it down with anything. Photoshop, illustrator, etc. which are big programs using high GPU, and she says it's faster then her high end Apple rig at work. (Don't have her work specs though, but is very new)

I LOVE this camcorder. Hi Def is incredible. Still shots (photos) are also great. I use it mainly for sports. I bought a couple different lenses (wide angle & telephoto) because I like what they offer. I personally use Adobe Premiere for editing but Final Cut would be another great option. Wondershare is also decent for quick editing and nothing fancy.

I do video conversion/editing a lot and edit time reduced by 50%. Coming from AMD phenom xII 965. Do not know about i5 pfocessor. I spend half the time I used to. I don't play any games.

I also have the pro 4x, I have never had the issue you seem to have. other than the 20 overlay tracks and the 3rd party add on's with the ultimate I can't see any difference. the main reason I upgraded was for these features as well as the price. I got it on sale at amazon and used rewards points on my credit card so it only cost me about $15. When I do a project I always seem to have alot of stills as well as video, for that reason I make several 3 or 4 minute clips saving them in mp4 format, then I stitch them together. That way if I'm well into the project & decide I want to make a change near the start It's no big deal, just change the one clip. Dave

If you are doing any type of video editing I would suggest an i7 because of the hyperthreading. But, don't sell the i5-4690k short it's still a very good processor especially for gaming. It will still handle most editing just not as well. If you are more focused on editing I'd wait and go for a 4790k. i5-4690k is amazing for gaming though.

I don't know about premiere but. However I do use it with davinci resolve 11 and it works great! It will do anything I throw at it when it comes to video editing as well as any gaming. My hardware platform is very similar to yours so I would think it would work well for your system. Hope this helps!

I use Sony Vegas and Adobe Premium Elements on my computer with the PNY GTX 760. It handles them both with no problems.

I have a system built for Photoshop CS6. ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+;AMD FX-8150; 24gigs of DDR3 Ram; PSU 750 and ASUS 2GB GDDR5 card. It performed as I expected. But what made it even more impressive was when I bought a second card and joined the two in crossfire mode. I was impressed how "smooth" it performed running Photoshop. It should be more than adequate for graphic editing with single card.

I comes with a license for the Sony Movie Studio Platinum 13. In the previous versions it was called Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum but in this version they dropped the "Vegas". This is pretty decent editing software.

I edit in Adobe Premiere CC, and from what I understand is, is that Premiere demands much more hardware intensive components to work better. FCPX is a bit more optimized for Macs from Apple, if you're looking to replace this in a Mac Pro/iMac/MacMini/etc, this will be perfect, I have 0 issues with this drive for editing, render speeds are fine, playback is smooth, 0 frames dropped, export is relatively fast. If this is going to be a scratch drive, this larger the capacity, the longer it will work before it goes dead, which is nice. Buy it if you can, or go for Samsung Pro SSD, which are better, but cost more. Hope this helped, message me if you have anymore questions.

Brett, I am a professional photographer but don't really do any video editing on this laptop. As far as photo editing, I think it's pretty great, especially for the price I paid for it. I second-guessed the screen calibration but checked it to be fairly spot-on. I am using Photoshop CS5 on it, and it runs just fine with the RAM and decent processor speed. My priority on a laptop purchase was the screen size, this one being 15.5" it was about as small as I wanted to go. All in all I am pleased with this machine, and I purchased it specifically for image editing and transmitting as I work for local news media and sporting teams here. Hope this helps.

I have an AMD fx-8320 which hinders everything and it still renders pretty quickly in my Adobe programs and Sony Vegas! :)

Hello KC. Your mini would come with more then enough ram to do what you need. You have a 2.5 ghz processor, 4 gigs of ram... and if you manage to outgrow that you can upgrade the ram down the road. I am a graphic artist and work with memory intensive programs, it is very fast and haven't noticed any lag time as long as you don't have too many other programs open in the background. There is also an additional perk that you Mini comes pre-loaded with iMovie software so you can create videos from scratch. :)

It makes better use of multiple processors & is 64 bit, so you don't have the 2Gb memory cap. Also, if you have a nVidia graphics card it can be set to also use the GPU when rendering. Vegas Pro 12 has more file formats it supports as well as support for HD & 3D video.

THIS works., It's a BIG pain, and Sony really should figure this out but I did it and it worked for me... Home Blogs Rodney Reynolds's blog Fix For Sony Vegas Crashing While Rendering/Editing If you are having issues rendering or editing in Sony Vegas Video Editing software (Pro or Studio), this might resolve the issue until Sony resolves this with a patch. I know it did for me. As a side note, Vegas 9c Pro fixes a lot of compatibility and stability issues. The problem that I had was that when I try using a EVGA X58 + Intel i7 920 Combo and render to the Sony AVC MP4 format it crashes immediately. This didn't happen on my previous X48 computer system. I've tried both Sony Vegas Media Studio 9 and Sony Vegas 8 but both crash on trying to render Sony AVC MP4 format. I've tried just about everything and have the same problem. I've tried reinstalling Vegas, I've tried installing a fresh copy of Vista and then Vegas, I've even tried installing Win7 Beta and Vegas. I've also removed overclock and all default system setting. This fix worked for me on Sony Vegas Studio Pro 9: http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/forums/ShowMessage.asp?ForumID=4&Mes... Here are the details on the fix: "Most 32 bit exe and dll files have a 2 gig maximum memory cap. I've been playing around with CFF EXPLORER (free download) which is a program that allows you to easily open the exe or dll and click the 2 gig memory switch that allows it to use more than 2 gig. I reset the memory flags in vegas80.exe m2tsplug.dll mcstdh264dec.dll sonymvd2pro_xp.dll to "greater than 2gig" and did a render of which I almost always crash on (avchd at 1920 render to m2ts 1920@16Mb/s with AC3 audio) I didn't crash! In fact memory usage shot up higher than i had ever seen vegas use (it shot up to 5gig and leveled off.... usually it climbs no higher than about 3.5 gig and creeps a little) The whole render process of avchd seems to be quite a bit more stable
