Needless to say its not going well The laptop does have 16 GB RAM but no graphics card.

I will tell you exactly how much RAM you need for Video Editing.

In fact, the best Computer for After Effects consists of very similar parts as a Video Editing Workstation.

I recently browsed the Internet with Google Chrome in about 10 Open Tabs and am listening to Music on YouTube.

You dont saturate this Bandwidth with normal 25FPS 60FPS projects.

But almost never the Playback of the Footage from RAM in Real-Time.

Now I dont know about your Footage, but my Footage (except maybe some EXRs in 8k) doesnt usually reach this size.

I want to buy a dell optiplex 7010 and a gtx 1650, the problem is that the 7010 uses DDR3 ram and it only has 8GB and i want to do some video editing and montages in after effects and premiere pro while also using photoshop for thumbnails and other pictures, and i dont know if DDR3 is good enough to edit in those programs.

Youll see better performance with DDR4 RAM and the Hardware that is similarly modern though, but a Dell 7010 would allow you to do some editing in smaller projects.

And being a noob to it and someone looking to get into video editing and also shopping for a laptop to handle it, its much appreciated.

Different is on Asus one 8gb are soldered I can only put 32gb on the other to makes 40gb total.

I start working with 8k 10bit on premiere but I can always make proxies until exports.

Should I just spend the money and go for the MSI or the Asus is workable Thank you ahead.

You didnt specify all the specs of both laptops but Im assuming the MSI comes with a better GPU andor more storage but whats really important here is the capability to expand to 64GB or RAM offered by the MSI laptop.

As mentioned in the article, 64GB of RAM is highly advisable if youre working on 8K footages on 10 bit.

Some may say that 64GB is overkill but RAM is something you can never have enough of in a computer and its always better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it, right.

For example, the Ryzen 7 4800HS has a faster base clock at 2.90 GHz compared to the i7-10875Hs 2.30 GHz.

Turbo Boos on a single core has the i7-10875H taking the upper hand at 5.10 GHz compared to the Ryzens 4.20 GHz but the Ryzen has a higher Turbo Boost on all cores at 3.80 GHz vs 3.20 GHz.

These differences on CPU speed may be or may not be game-changing but again, the important factor to consider here is RAM upgradability given your use case scenario.

While the Asus may give you a slightly better CPU with its Ryzen 7 4800HS, Id still go with the MSI so I can max out the RAM to 64GB and in the process ensure I have enough RAM for what I need the laptop for.

I bought a workstation secondhand with good CPU but little RAM, it indeed was stripped off most out of its RAM: its got 16GB out of 128GB I was considering regaining the 128GB but your article made me understand it is like there was no use for me, I was thinking like those people who want a 500hp car to cruise at 80kph pointless Thanks a lot Vic.

In your case where you usually work with 720HD format for YouTube videos, you can definitely get away with 16GB.

No sense driving a Ferrari on a road congested with traffic, right.
