i5 650 / i3 5005u enough for making youtube videos?

[Sami Sipila]

Hello!

I have a friend that wants to make gameplay videos for youtube.
He already got he's capture card etc etc but he hasn't thought about his editing.

He currently has a desktop with i5 650 & nvidia gt 320 and a laptop with i3 5005u.
Is either of them enough?

Thanks in advance!

Why not go try make some videos?
It's not a glamorous build for sure, so it's definitely not meant for real heavy-duty editing. But light editing, sure.

Well he hasn't really started yet.
I was just wondering if a 5-10 min video is going to take a long time to render with that kind of hardware😛

I'm rocking a i5 4690k @ 4.2Ghz & GTX 970 so i have no problems
