Entry Plus Video Editing Computer

High performance for 1080p and occasional 4K video editing

Our entry plus video editing PC offers a big step up in performance over the entry system. Firstly, the processor upgrade to the i5-14500 offers a useful speed boost. The i5 features hyper-threading technology and offers 20 virtual cores and 14 physical cores. The system memory also doubles to a useful 32GB which is essential for editing 4K even for basic and relatively short clips. The storage is also greatly improved with separate drives for the OS and applications. Performance is improved via the use of the faster NVMe type SSD drives.  Use the primary SSD for your OS and application installations and the second SSD for your scratch area and Premiere Pro cache.

 

The graphics is also the NVidia RTX 3050 8GB.  The additional video memory is useful and the increased processing power of the RTX 3050 helps speed up GPU accelerated tasks in Premier Pro.

 

The silent workstation chassis offers a mid sized, solidly built and flexible housing with internal soundproofing to both side panels to keep your workstation running quietly, even under load.  There is also plenty of space for installing additional storage drives. The system can accept two 3.5″ SATA drives and another two 2.5″ SSD drives. Also, the computer comes already configures with 2 x M.2 high-performance SSDs so in total you can use six storage drives in this system. To add further storage drives to your PC in the configurator, hit the ‘Add Another’ button to the right-hand side of the primary storage drive header. Alternatively, contact us for a quote with additional storage options.  The chassis also provides an SD card reader built in at the top.

 

This PC also includes high performance WIFI and Bluetooth with the latest dual band wireless AX technology which is able to achieve speeds of up to 2.4 Gbps.

 

This system is aimed at those editing in 1080p and QHD (1440p) with a small amount of work in 4k occasionally.  Take a look at our blogs to find out more about how your choice of PC components affects your overall system performance in Premier Pro.
