Is the i3 processor good for video editing desktop

[cmarsh001]

Hello,
i just bought an i3 processor desktop but i meant to buy an i5, its 50 dollars more for the i5. I will be doing some video editing but no gaming. Should I go back and swap to the i5 or just keep the i3?

Well, the i3 will do video editing just fine, but the i5 will just do it quicker, so really, that decision is up to you. For me personally, I would go ahead and get the i5, but that's all my own opinion.

I agree.. With the i3 you can video edit just fine... But for a boost of speed go with the i5

If ur budget is low then just go with the i3 though... U shouldnt have much problems with it
