My RAM is pretty good, though. I keep thinking about getting Premiere but then I figure, what if that sucks, too? It would be a waste of money and space. Also, the files in this are pretty big, that's got a lot to do with it I'm sure. It lags when I use filters, effects, and when I do quick cut scenes. In long scenes that aren't cut and don't have any effects at all, it runs better.
