Intel i7-4700 quad-core processor,
Windows 8,
8G of memory,
NVIDIA GeForce GT750M GDDR5 2GB (1 card or 2?),
24G SATA SSD (for Win8),
full HD graphics (1920x1080),
1TB drive (5400 rpm)
I'm a bit concerned about the 5400rpm drive, would a 7200rpm drive provide much better performance? I could install a TravelStar 1TB 7200rpm drive instead if necessary. The other issue is whether PowerDirector can make use of dual GT750M graphic cards (which is supported by the Y510p). Could you comment on the benefits (if any) of using dual graphic cards? If this isn't supported by PowerDirector at the moment, are there plans to support dual-cards later? How much benefit would maxing out the system memory to 16G provide?
All-in-all, do you feel the Y510p will provide a capable hardware platform for video work with PowerDirector? Are there any other sub $1000 machines that have proven to work well with PowerDirector? I appreciate any help.
Thanks.
