I have finally decided it is time to upgrade my computer. Using same case and data drives, except using an SSD drive for the C:\ drive and moving from Win XP 32 bit to Win 7 64 bit.
I had chosen an AMD 8350 Processor and an ASUS board, but the number of comments to go with an Intel system forced me to at least look. I found AMD systems much easier to understand, but after nearly a week, Im getting a handle on Intel and understanding models and terminology.
Ive settled on the i7 3770 (not the K) and the ASUS P8Z77-V Pro board. My main reason is to try the on board video capabilities of the i7 3770 and this board vs buying a video card with an AMD system.
I use Sony Vegas 9, but cant upgrade to the current version with XP, but will upgrade to 12 once I get new computer up and running. My video editing is a hobby, and a minor part of my computer use.
My question is for those that use an Intel on board video for editing videos. How does it work, and is it a good option?
