Experience shows that a Phenom X4 with a clock speed of 3.2 GHz gives reasonable editing performance for 1920*1080 AVCHD.Ģ GB of system memory are recommended for AVCHD. If you want to edit 1920x1080 AVCHD video, the CPU minimum speed goes up to 2.66 GHz and a four core CPU is specified. The i7 is also mentioned, but it seems the i3 and i5 weren't around when the program was tested. 720i/p AVCHD video requires a Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz or higher. To edit HDV or 1080 Mpeg2 video, the requirements are the same as SD, but performance will be more sluggish.

The processor requirements for HD editing are a little confusing. Intel GMA integrated graphics aren't supported for this plug-in. The Magic Bullet Looks plug-in that is included in Ultimate Collection requires a graphics card with 128 MB of memory (for SD) with Pixelshader.
