Hi Folks

I'm hoping someone can offer advice on which of the options below would be best as a video editing platform using Adobe Premiere Elements please:

HP DualCore PC/4g/500GWin10Pro

HPi5 PC/4G/500GB/Win10Pro

HPAIO PC/i3/4G/500G/Win10Pro

HP280 G3 Microtower with either Intel Gore i3-6100 or Pentium G4560

Outside of these specific choices what criteria should I apply to selecting the best hardware to run Elements.

(I am a small charity with limited budget of around $700. I want to buy a small number of computers to run media training courses).

Kind regards

Paul

As equipped, none of those PCs even come close to the practical minimum that's needed for anywhere close to a pleasant editing experience. Although the CPUs are weaklings themselves, the two bigger failings are the extremely skimpy amount of RAM and the molasses-slow single hard drives that can't attain even 35 MB/s in disk I/O throughput as configured.

None of those processors will be fast enough for a pleasant editing experience.
