Hi all
I have a Toshiba satellite A70 notebook with a Mobile Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.2GHz and 256mb of RAM. I use my computer alot for school work but recently I have started using programs like TMPGEnc DVD source creator and DVD-lab to do alot of video editing with 4gb+ file sizes and I have found that my computer is struggling to cope. In recent times also my processor has killed the computer to prevent heat damage.
I want to know if simply upgrading to 1gb of RAM will be enough. If not would upgrading my processor help, if so what is the best one I can upgrade to with this notebook. Or would it be best to simply buy a new notebook, the local computer shop showed me an acer aspire 9425WSMi which has an Intel core 2 Duo t7200 CPU and 2gb of RAM.
Thanks for any advive.
