Hi Aptosfilmer,

I am only new to the forum and the wide world of computers. With your computer you may have to do a bit of research as to whether or not it is worthwhile to upgrade it to support video editing - it also depends on the editing software you are going to use. I recently upgraded mine and it cost around A$1300 which they provided another 320 Gb hardrive providing me with a total of 960 Gb; this also included upgrading the processor and the RAM this allows the machine to operate faster. Computer hardware is becoming cheaper, I have been quoted about A$3K to buy a new PC with all the equipment expected to support my new venture.

I am sure one of the other gurus will provide with a more accurate solution. I hope this helps in the interim
