    Not a recent processor by any means but should have no problem with light photo/video editing
    I think the CPU would be a bottleneck with any heavy HD stuff though

    Well what type of editing are you hoping to do exactly?

    I do a lot of photography and process raw files. I also do some drone work with 1080p and 4k video.

    You could upgrade the CPU. I'm not what the mobo supports though. Should be in the manual or online
