I knew I clicked on the right video when he said neither PC nor MAC was better... they're just machines.

Bruh... this is the best, most detailed video on YT regarding hardware specs needed to upgrade your computer. You speak to both the experts and the novices. Easy to follow and understand. Thanks man!

[SimonNewsome]

I literally just went from bumbling around random numbers and specs trying to find a laptop for editing to understanding much more of what I was looking at. Thank you!

[nestorisaacestoque]

I haven't even finished the video yet and I already hit like. The way you explain and carefully consider every detail that creators should also consider when buying a video editing computer is awesone.

You have no idea how thankful I am for this video. I REALLY appreciate you being so straight forward!

[richardponce]

Perfect video for the information I was seeking as a "wanna start" in video. I would like to have heard more regarding the motherboard, but understand that a Mac user doesn't have a need to know this stuff.

As an electronics technologist and PC builder for Flight Simulator enthusiasts, Anthony is right on. Valuable information and very accurate. I agree with him completely. Remember his note about the multi-core systems. I have built 8 core systems only to see a main program only use one core. Maddening. So a 4 core would work better than an 8 core, believe it or not. Let's hope programmers can get with it when they build their software for us. And to keep your investment the longest, buy the most powerful you can afford now so you don't have to upgrade again next year and you can coast for a few years or more. (and yes, SSDs are perfectly fine to use now... all our tablets have them and most laptops now).

Well done! You've demystified the process of putting together specs for a decent editing machine with a very sensible and pragmatic approach. This was very helpful. Thank you very much.

Hey, Paul. I like how open minded and relaxed you are towards explaining things.

[ReygansRides]

I had your minimum specs before, it takes forever to render at 1080p60. It was an i5 with 16gb ram. Upgraded to a Ryzen 9 and 32gb RAM and never looked back. I fully agree, the time cost by itself is worth the upgrade. Thanks for the validation, just subscribed. Now I’m trying to justify upgrading to a Canon R6 from a 77D.

I know a fuck ton about computers and I still watched this. Dude explains things pretty well, keep it up g.

[anthonygazsi]

I kept seeing your ad when watching other creators on YouTube! Finally had the time to get around to watching your vids and love how clear and cut the content is! I always have so many questions! Thanks for answering them in an efficient way!

[TheTripFam]

Youre very knowlegeable. I been doing computers since a kid. Music editing now im doing video editing. So it was nice to watch and clarify. Proper editing is helping our channel grow

Thank you so much for explaining everything I was legit confused on all the aspects of what to look for in a computer. Keep up the good work very informative video 🫶🏽❤️

[atultilkaan]

Anthony Man I am so impressed with your teaching skills. Enrolled already. Started watching 14 Day Film Maker and enjoying. You deserve millions of subs man. Keep creating😊🙏

[kawesipastorholland]

Thank you. This was very detailed, and I love it🎉. New subscriber

[burniemaurins]

Excellent and understandable information, thank you for that.

[RockstarHarley]

I've just watched through this after being confused by what computer/mac I need to replace my knackered 2008 MacBook pro and iPhone that I've currently been making all of my videos with and THIS IS SO HELPFUL!!!!

Can't thank you enough for how easy you've made it to understand what is most important when looking at the specs!!!

This has been the best video I've watched so far, for what I should look for in a computer for video editing. I have absolutely no idea what all of this stuff is and or does, when it comes to computers. I am about as ignorant as they come when it comes to computers, but this video made it simple to understand. Thanks for simplifying this for a below novice person (me) to understand. I am looking to get started editing family home/vacation videos from a DJI Osmo action, mostly 1080p 60fps for now, but want to learn to play with other options like 4k once I figure out the basics. Also my son (11 yrs old) wants to learn how to make/edit movies/videos (says he wants to work for Marvel). He already is editing stop motion and silly videos he makes on an ipad, but I want to give him something better that he can do more with, so he can upload cool stuff to his youtube channel and learn how to make and edit movies and videos. I started watching tutorial videos and found this awesome simple to follow/understand video. Thanks so much!!

Thanks for the great video...i was jotting down notes as i watched. You've explained every aspect much better than any other videos i've watched...in detail, yet not over-the-top technical. I'm in the market for a new laptop, and now have a greater idea what to look for! Thank you!
