Re: FCP X hardware performance

This exactly what I have found. Playback on a MacPro 3.33GHz, 6 Core 2010 Macpro and 24 GB shows the CPU idling at almost 80% when playing back a three camera angle Pro Rez 1920 x 1080 multi cam clip. Playback constantly drops frames and is even worse when an LHI AJA Kona card is brought into the mix. I remember this became much worse when FCPX 1.03 and 1.04 were released. By contrast a 2.93 GHz 7iCore IMac with only an 800 Firewire and 12 GB of RAM plays back the same clips without any problems
