Laptop for Video Editing.

    I'm looking to get a laptop costing up to €700 max for video editing. This is more of a hobby than anything so I can't afford to splash out any more and I need the laptop for day to day life also. I've been looking at Dell and there are 2 models I think I've narrowed it down to.

    (It would be less than €700 when a coupon is deducted)

    The 15z has a slower processor and the weaker graphics card afaik. But it's lighter and has a better screen. My question is how much of a difference would the processor and graphics card make in these 2 and would that be offset at all by the 15z having a SSD?

    I've noticed on here there are very few if any links to Dell. Why is this? Spec wise they seem to offer the best bang for my buck. Are there other issues?

    Any help/advice would be much appreciated.
