    Does anyone know if the Radeon 3450 HD graphics card is fast enough to handle "PINNACLE STUDIO ULTIMATE 12" video editing software? Will the computer slow down for only video editing & if not will slow down opening multiple windows while video editing? This is detemining whether I buy the STUDIO 15 laptop with T8100 or higher processor/ 4gigs of RAM/ 200gig 7200 rpm HD/ . I heard the XPS Nvidia graphic cards aren't doing to well with the heat. Thank You for whatever ever input you have.

    I understand that, but just because it meets the requirements doesn't mean the computer won't slow down. I'm curious if anyone is running a video editing program & has experienced any slowdown with the Studio 15 laptop running the specs I posted or better. Thanks for the reply though :)

    What did you end up doing? I'm thinking of buying a Studio 15 also for video editing.

    Thanks,
