I currently video editing on a 2015 4th gen 3.1 Ghz dual core i7 13" laptop with 16GB of ram and a 512GB SSD with no dedicated graphics it takes way too long to export videos... I need it to take less than 12 hours as it currently takes almost 48 hours to render videos that are over 30 min long.... i'm in the market for a new laptop for video editing... my internet is also a bottleneck for uploading my videos to youtube but that I can't control since I already have the fastest internet in my area with faster internet being over 1 hour drive south of me... too far for me to drive to
new computer must meet all requirements.... it must be 14" or smaller (NOT bigger!), must have a quad core cpu (no dual core cpu with 2 hyperthredded cores.... must be true quad core!), and must have dedicated graphics built in (it can NOT have integrated with support for eGPU)
the only computer I can think of at the moment is the new alianware 13 with i7-7700hq 1TB SSD, 32GB of ram and nvidea gtx 1060 but I know there are more computers out there which meet all my requirements as I don't know if that is the best computer for my needs... also I would like to consider used machines as the newest computers might not be the best option for my need
