Specs for Minimal levels of performance in VEGAS Movie Studio 17

Most software developers publish system requirements, and while they're accurate, they can be difficult to interpret; not everyone's comfortable with the jargon employed and older components are often referred to long after they've left the market.

Here are current specs for pre-built machines capable of handling VEGAS Movie Studio 17.

Sadly, there are also no predefined standards for performance; some developers have very high standards while others can be a bit optimistic so your mileage may vary.

Ready-to-Order Systems Meeting these Specs Prices range from ∼ US$970 to US$2290, accessories included.

The following Systems meet the minimal system requirements set by VEGAS Movie Studio 17's developers. So it should run, but you might experience slowdowns when working with larger, heavier files.
