Is this good for vedio rendering and editing,adobe cs and editing pics and stuff like that?

I use it for 3D rendering, so i don't see a problem handling those. If you can overclock it, you will have more performance.

Yes, it is a great processor. However, I would look at getting the 5820k because its newer and a little bit faster.

It is, but get enough ram, 16gb or at least two gb for each core. Also don't forget that much of video rendering in modern NLEs is off loaded to the graphics processors.

If you are running Photoshop cs your graphics card should be able to handle Intuous 3 I think. Check with Wacom to be sure.

That would depend upon your usage.If you just browse the web,use apps that are not cpu intensive,it should be fine.It would also depend on your ram.If you're doing video editing,or a lot of coding,it might be worthwhile to upgrade.If you need more info,just ask,and give your a rundown of your set-up.

this depends on what the main task is. If you are using it for email and internet then you are good to go. If you are going to do some photoshop editing and 3d modeling then way too low. Hopefully this help.

Probably. It's not very high resolution so for gaming or photoshop work it wouldn't be great but for internet, and everyday stuff it should be fine. The price looks pretty good.

that is correct. My friend has one with the NVIDIA chipset built upon the board. It produces stunning graphics on screen and with Corel Photoshop it breezes right thru picture manipulation.

For photo editing in Lightroom or Photoshop this i5 would be a little underpowered.... You'd be much better off with the i7 version. A little more money, but very worth it. I think it was around $800. Hope that helps. I'd be happy to answer any more questions if you have any.

I would say yes, but I have not used this computer for too long. You know that at the begining all windows computers perform great, but after a while it starts giving problems. But for now, I have used photoshop, photmatrix and lightroom and everything is great.

I use this computer for many uses, one of which is graphics work with the GIMP (gnu image manipulation program) which is similar to Photoshop (in both capabilities and requirements). This computer can easily run the program, and has enough ram to open/edit good sized documents, but will lag on big files or if you run a processing task of any magnitude. Simpler processing tasks like adjusting brightness and contrast work fine, but lag on big images to the point that it is (slightly) annoying if you use the active preview. I also have a powerful home- built desktop, and it's greater speed is both noticeable and welcome after using the laptop. Short answer: it will work fine, but it is the minimum, more power would be ideal if photo work is your focus. If you only edit photos occasionally, this laptop should perform fine. Disclaimer: I cannot speak on the software aspect of the computer(win8) and how much power it consumes, as I wiped the hard drive immediately after the computer arrived and replaced win8 with Ubuntu 13.04

I have a system built for Photoshop CS6. ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+;AMD FX-8150; 24gigs of DDR3 Ram; PSU 750 and ASUS 2GB GDDR5 card. It performed as I expected. But what made it even more impressive was when I bought a second card and joined the two in crossfire mode. I was impressed how "smooth" it performed running Photoshop. It should be more than adequate for graphic editing with single card.

Andrew, I do not use adobe or other photo editing software, I use it for software development, so for this use, the equipment is very good. However for what you are needing I think the video card falls far short.I hope I help you.

yes... I have used both adobe AND autocad. they both are very fast on an i7 machine.

I would assume you can being that I do heavy Photoshop n Lightroom programs .. I haven't run my Cabnetware cad on it but this is a really great monster of a notebook being 64 and Win7 instead of 8 ..

I doubt it would be good for your purposes. It's OK at 1080p but can bog down/stutter at times with a LOT of rapidly moving objects on screen - such as some parts of Guardians of The Galaxy. As for video editing - it could work .. but it sounds like you need a more robust card.

"I have not used this computer for graphics or video editing, but for everything that I have used it for (general computer use) it is fantastic. I bought this computer because my tabletop computer couldn't keep up with what I considered basic stuff like surfing the web or working in Excel or Word documents. The old computer would bog down if I had two or three programs going at once, but this laptop is lickity split. No matter how many programs I have running it has never slowed down one little bit, so I would think that it should work just fine with graphics and editing.

If you plan on doing basic stuff with your computer you should be fine with the integrated video it has, BUT... if you plan on using Photoshop, editing or gaming, you should buy a video card. ( I'm a harcore gamer and i got this motherboard + EVGA GTX 670... It's a beast <3)

Honestly, I've had nothing but issues since purchasing this laptop. I personally have not used it for video editing, but would not buy it for that specific purpose.
