Acer Aspire 3 15.6in AMD A9 8GB 1TB Laptop.

A9-9420E processor.
Dual core processor.
1.8GHz processor speed with a burst speed of 2.7GHz.
8GB RAM DDR4.
1TB HDD storage.
Hard drive speed 5400RPM.
Microsoft Windows 10.

I am GTA Player and i enjoy making and editing TDM Montages so nothing to heavy when it comes to editing the clips together with some effects, colour grading, decent transitions ect.. i look to use Sony Vegas 365 and im on a budget for a laptop (£400) So if its a decent enough laptop lemme know if not link me to one that is? Thank you in advance.

It wouldn't be my first choice... you really should have a quad core, more RAM and a decent GPU.

Give it a try, and if it works and you are ok with the speed then go for it... :)

not the kind of laptop you want to use for video editing, especially if they are Full-HD or 4k videos. If you are looking for something on the cheap, check out the new Acer Nitro 5. It is around £600-£700. Slightly higher but should run GTA V and other games and support Full-HD video editing with ease.
