So currently I'm editing on my AMD A4-4000 and integrated graphics. I use filmora and it is OK, just a bit laggy. I am upgrading to an AMD Athlon 3000g and planning on using integrated GPU. I also use after effects and premiere so do you think I need a GPU. Even if I do get one, it will probably be an RX470 or 550 or something inexpensive

Please tag me @Windows9 so I can see your reply

id rather get a 2200g AT LEAST. Tho you will have to upgrade both ram and mobo for that.

Yes, or even faster. A used rx480/1060 or something around that price point should do you very well in video editing.

I have a GT730. Should I use it or will iGPU be better
