You could always test out your existing machine by downloading some 4k samples. It may be able to rescale the 4k video to your screen size. I have a surface pro 3 here (i5 4300U with 4GB RAM) which does a good job of scaling the 4k to its screen. It also has a 4k @ 30 fps output via mini display port connection, which works well with a 4k monitor I have (ASUS 23.6 inch). So in terms of playback what you have might be sufficient.
For editing I use Sony Movie Studio Platinum on my desktop which is well specified. I can output 4k @ 60fps using an older GTX650 graphics card. The editor actually runs on the Surface pro 3, but is slow in comparison, you would be speaking several hours to render on it compared to half an hour on the desktop. |
