Intel Core i3-4005U + 8GB DDR3 RAM | Video Editing capabilities?

[ghZZ]

Hello all,

I am traveling soon and I am planning to shoot and edit somevideo footage there. To do that, I will need to have a laptop capable of editing some 1080p 30fps video out of my DSLR. I won't be gaming much on it other than some VERY light Counter-Strike or other light games.

The specs include the following
Processor : 1.7 GHz Intel Core i3-4005U
RAM : 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz
Storage : 250 GB SSD
Graphics : Intel HD Graphics 4400


I am fine with lowering the preview window resolution and some other settings like that, but will this be able to crunch through a couple 2D animations, text overlays, semi-smooth scrubbing, color grading, and things of that sort?

Thanks,
- ghZZ

It'll do the job, but it certainly won't crush them, seeing as it's a low-power, undervolted Ultrabook CPU.
