In the end I had an I5 chip with integrated Graphics.  I have successfully been using MoviePlus X5 with no problems.

From memory MVP never used any GPU, just CPU, so you shouldn't have problems.  Unlike many video editors where GPUs cause issues.  But then without GPU MVP wasn't able to delve into complicated FX or render fast.

What coincidence, I've brought last 2 PC's from PCSpecialist and thats where I was looking at the moment.

Hello All

Might need to look for a new PC soon, just wonder your thoughts on whether integrated graphics are good enough these days or should I spend on a dedicated graphics card.

thanks for any help / advice

I have an 11900K intel chip.  It runs great using the integrated graphics (UHD 750) .. I can run it very successfully even when doing Video editing.  I'd say if you get an i9 Intel chip you do not need a separate video card unless you are doing very heavy graphic arts with tons of FX, layers etc.
