Edius + I7: good editing with AVCHD file?

[FoxAdriano]

Hi, I know AVCHD files are very good and this format will replace MPEG2. But it is a very heavy format for editing. If I use Edius 5 and an I7 processor, I will make a good and fluid editing? I usually use 4-5 A/V tracks. I don't like to get worries about editing, it has to be amusing editing.
I have to buy a new PC and a new camera.
Thanks

Edius 5.5 and newer versions have AVCHD support. Edius 5.4 and earlier doesn't.

I assure u, i7 + Edius 5.5 or on is a definite win combo. I use i7 930 with 6 GB RAM and editing is fluent, very. :]

I have edius 5.5 too with i7 930 overclocked to 4.01 ghz and I'm editing native avchd from my 7d on it.

I7 930 seria o minimo para editar AVCHD, mesmo assim tenho duvidas se nas edições com complementos como, titulação, e efeitos, se não tiver uma boa placa de video e memoria a edição pode ter problemas.
