To make your purchasing easier, we have compiled a list of the best laptops for video editing in Pakistan. Our guide includes specs for each video improvement notebook so you to pick the one that best suits your requirements.

Important Specs to look for in a Video Editing Laptop

Various factors make you judge the performance of a video editing laptop such as the resolution you are improving and how quickly you want the rendering to be done. Though most modern laptops today are capable of designing still it is better to cross-check if they can edit a 4K with fast rendering speeds. Hence, you need a high-powered portable machine with the following specifications.

According to Intel, if you edit 1366 x 768 resolution videos, then a device with a CPU having 2.8 GHz clock speed and 8 GB of RAM would suffice. However, a Full HD of 1920 x 1080 resolution would need a processor with up to 3.8 GHz clock speed and a minimum of 12 GB RAM. As for 4K videos, the processor clock speed needs to be 4.2 GHz or higher paired with at least 16 GB RAM.

Having said that, the latest Alder Lake 12th Gen Intel Core i5 processors have clock speeds of 4.4 GHz and higher. You can expect 4.5 GHz or more clock speeds from the new Ryzen 6000 chips as well. Just make sure, these are paired with plenty of RAM.

Another important specification in a video editing laptop is its GPU. Having a discrete GPU can considerably speed up video rendering. Hence you can meet deadlines easily. AMD and Nvidia are potent GPU brands. However, the MacBook range uses powerful M1 chips, which is why the MacBook Pro is probably one of the best video editing laptops in the market.

However, if you prefer a Windows device, then look out for a notebook that is marketed with Nvidia Studio Drivers. These drivers can handle high-performance correction. Also, it is recommended you check the manufacturer’s manual or website online to see if it is recommended for editing or not.
