Its a MacBook pro

So I am looking at an old 2011 MacBook for 1080p video editing on Adobe premiere and photoshop, I am just wondering if an old 2011 mac would still be good? I have been told these are good cheap laptops that can get work done but my main concern is with the CPU being a 2nd gen i5. These are the basic specs: 8gigs of ram 256 GB ssd (I know it's small but its workable) i5 2415 2.3 ghz Mac 10.12 Sierra If you have any better laptop suggestions (pc or mac) that are in the sub $500 range that would be good for what I need to do it would be appreciated.

Would an i5 be able to help with 3d modeling/rendering/video editing as well as multitasking? This Pc is used for both gaming and working and I have heard that AMD cores perform's better in these categories. Or am I mistaken in this assertion?

So this is my first PC build and after researching and checking compatibility/looking for good parts this is what I have come up with. The purpose of this post is mainly to double check the build because I want to make sure I don't have a major issue with my build before I pay for it. Also, this is my first build after all so if you have any tips for the actual build process that would be appreciated Thanks in advance. NOTE: At the time of writing some of these items are on sale and they may go up and down in price. Price before rebates: 646.74 I do have a few questions about some things I am paranoid about getting right for my first build: A: Generally, does the build look good? Or is there some super amazing ultra cheap price-performance graphics card that would better serve me. Basically is there anything that I can or should upgrade for my benefit (preferably for less or the same amount of money) B: does the motherboard look good, is there a better one for the same price? What about compatibility? Yes, I have checked compatibility with everything but I am paranoid and confirmation never hurts. C: Does the power supply fit my needs, this is another thing I am paranoid about because bad power supplies can destroy your whole system. Does it deliver enough wattage, I have checked this myself and I believe it does but I want to make sure. Is corsair trustworthy (I have heard they are +amazon reviews look good but want to double check). D: Do I need the wifi adapter that I have or does the motherboard come with wifi, the reason it's included is because I think I need it. This is something I have looked up and been unable to find an answer to (I am on a budget so $8 is actually significant). Thanks in advance for any answers.
