What would you do? AVCHD or HDV for Premiere Pro CS4?

Oct 11, 2010 8:44PM PDT

Hi,
I have a P4, 2.8Ghz, 2G Ram with XP Pro. I hear rumblings that AVCHD is a nightmare with Premiere CS4 in terms of playback stutter. Ultimately I want the least frustrating editing experience I can have with PPCS4. I'm prone to punching my desk if things get too bogged or buggy while dealing with software so I guess my question is this: Would PPCS4 be happier with AVCHD or HDV given my system?
Thanks,
Matt.
