Most of my project are HD, but some in 4K. Thanks in advance.

My guess: HD media no problem. 4K media will play back fine, but the editing experience will likely be a bit choppy unless you use proxies or transcode to format like cineform, MagicYUV, etc. The Nvidia card will do more good in Vegas 15 than 14, but you should download trial to test. If there is any way to load Vegas trials on this machine before you buy it, that would be best.

That's quite a find for a used machine!
