the video card is as important as the processor and ram in a HD video editing machine. Contrary to what is posted above, 'any old computer' can't process HD video - even some new ones with shitty video cards have trouble even opening a video file let alone batch converting it or actually doing anything with it.

If you aren't really technically confident to custom build a machine or ask for specific hardware, look for a computer that is built for gaming - they have top video cards and good processor speed with a good amount of ram.
