I purchased this as someone's request. I have personally never used it so I honestly don't know. Sorry.

This is an older model graphics average and suitable for my needs. I chose this model because it is very dependable ! I have had another one since 2009 has not failed me yet.

The resolution is exceptional. Like all monitors you will have to tinker for color match. Sadly it only hold 4gigs of ram - had it supported 8 I would recommend as a best buy in old used laptops.

This laptop is works great with programs like photoshop, running smoothly even when I use tons of high resolution layers. I have not had any experience with video editing but I do not foresee it being problematic. It has the i7 processor which is something that would be very helpful for video editing and also has the very nice GTX760 graphics card, which though not the best out there, is still not shabby and I would expect it to be at least sufficient for video editing. It also has two slots for RAM so if the 8 GB doesn't end up being enough you can replace the RAM it comes with to get up to 32 GB of RAM.

It runs very well. It has a good processor and works better than a newer HP laptop that I purchased at Walmart for $375 For $175.99 you are getting a great deal. The only thing I didn't like was the small hdd, which I replaced with a 500gb one.

For a non-gaming laptop, it actually games pretty well. I've played Civ5 and Guild Wars 2 on mine and it does fine. It gets a bit hot on the underside when you have been at it for a while but overall, pretty good laptop.

yes. It's a great laptop. Only thing I didn't like was the windows 8 desktop. But, was able to change the desktop to work similar to XP & windows 7 desktops with the start in bottom left corner.

Yes it is and is a great laptop. Got it for my dad so I cannot benchmark games on it.

I love this laptop. It can run almost every game on high to ultra settings. I play watch dogs on ultra and get 40 frames per second. Sometimes even more.

its decent for it. its got integrated graphics which kinda sucks, but itll play things like skyrim on low settings, if you want to use that as a benchmark. i havent noticed any overheating problem. i personally use it for gaming as im a twitch streamer and this is my main rig atm. i havent really tried newer games on it as much. it has slowdown with dolphin (gamecube/wii emulator) but runs things like Skullgirls no problem.

The graphics on the 2.0Ghz model are perfectly fine for your purposes. I have one of these machines and it is excellent for just what you plan to do. Enjoy!

The color is really crisp, just make sure to have latest drivers for your graphics and default any color options in their settings. Then fine-tune from there.

So far it has been a great laptop, I preferred Windows 7 and it was configured with this version. I had a HP laptop and this one seems solid, besides the HP motherboard died after about a year and a key broke. It's fast, I'm not a gamer so if this is your main hobby I have no idea what it will do.

I have had mine for several months and I believe it is a fine laptop. No complaints so far.

This is very good laptop overall, just Windows 7 are slowing it down quite a bit ( despite 3 GB of RAM installed).If you gonna use this I recommend replacing Windows w/ Linux ( I use Lubuntu very light & efficient free OS).
