Best Desktop Computer For Video Editing 2017

Best desktop computer I had yet

Best computer for editing videos.

I purchased the Mac Mini M2 Pro for video editing, as my 2017 Macbook Pro was getting a bit pokey for 4K, 10-bit footage. The new Mini has handled this job without a hiccup so far, and the speedy internal SSD and an external SSD I built to go with it have helped enormously. I'd originally been looking at the Mac Studio, but the less expensive but very punchy Mini made more sense for what I do. Love it.

Used it to transfer a video tape to computer for editing

I use this to take the audio from my editing computer and split to my desktop monitors and headphones.� It works perfectly and has a tiny footprint on my desk - exactly what I needed. Also great to pack up and take into the field for small audio jobs.

Best computer I've owned, better graphics than my desktop PC. Runs very hot though.

I use several external SSDs while editing video for broadcast. This helps me to work on programs at home or at the office. The Thunderbolt cable not only connects the SSDs to my desktop, it also connects my laptop to my desktop. The ability to transfer 30 GB files in less than a minute (machine to machine) is a great help.

I've been looking for a good pair of desktop monitors for a while now. My primary use is video editing with Premiere Pro. I also use them for listening to the audio from an SDR (Software Defined Radio) and general purpose use ie: streaming video. These fit my needs perfectly. The are the perfect size for my limited desk space. Best of all the sound quality is awesome! They totally blow away the built in speakers in my laptop. The detail is amazing compared to what I was used to. I have no need for a sub with my setup.

This is a gem. I do a lot of video editing using multiple portable and desktop drives as well as needing to charge my cell phone and various bits of camera gear. I've got my seven most used drives plugged in now and can access any of them just by turning the ports on (or off when done). Have my cell charger permanently plugged in. Sure beats the old method of only being able to run two drives at once. Highly recommend this...small desktop profile. Power for drives and charging. Can't ask for much more.

Tons of storage space, very reliable consistent. I use it for video editing, and it communicates with my desktop effortlessly.
