I am not familiar with graphics cards, processes, or basically anything in my computer, so please go easy on me. I want to purchase this new camera...

However, it records in a very high-quality mode.

Full HD: 1920 x 1080 (60fields/sec 16Mbps)
Full-SHQ: 1920 x 1080 (30 fps/ 12Mbps)
HD-HR: 1280 x 720 (60fps, 12Mbps)
HD-SHQ: 1280 x 720 (30 fps/9Mbps)
TV-SHQ: 640 x 480 (30 fps/3Mbps)


My computer can obviously handle some of the lower resolutions such as 1280 x 720 and 640 x 480. But what about the others? Full HD, and other HD quality modes may be too much for my computer. My computer is fast and, currently, can handle playing video with these resolutions, but will be computer be able to edit them? Considering the high quality of the video, my computer may be extremely slow when editing. I might not even get the full potential of the quality through the editing process/finalizing process.

These are my computers stats...


and here is my graphics...



Playing the video will be no problem (I think). I might need a better graphics card or something to even play Full HD video. I really need to edit it as well (I am using PowerDirector to edit). I am in the process of putting out a home-movie thing, so I really want the best quality available. Also, my monitor is this one, just in case that matters...
