will this laptop be good for gopro HEVC editing? null

Hello, this is directly from the Go Pro website specifications for using HEVC. "HEVC is supported on Windows 10 computers using the Intel Kaby Lake (or equivalent) processor and newer. If your computer isn’t running Windows 10 / macOS High Sierra or newer, you will not be able to play HEVC files." It is always recommended for photography and video rendering to get a strong processor and a dedicated GPU. This device is a step under the i7 processor. Best Buy allows 14 days to utilize what you purchase and find out if it is meeting your needs. It is recommended to use the device to your maximum usage capacity and see if it fulfills the desired results. If not, exchange and upgrade to more powerful device within the 14 day window from purchase date. Thank you for being an HP customer!

On the i5-dy very likely processor wise as I’ve read on, but “extensive editing” this model will need more Ram for sure and more 2.5 NVME SSD storage as well. It has 12 Ram (1-4 and 1-8) /256 go and that not much… 1 tb SSD likely needed, but more would certainly be an improvement.
