Quad Core vs. 8-Core
by Samah Bennett on Jul 4, 2009 at 2:07:25 am

I'm hopefully going to buy a new Mac Pro soon, and I wanted to know from FCP users out there if they had noticed a profound difference in performing using the Quad Core vs. the 8 core Mac Pros.

I'm sure there's a difference as it has close to twice the processor power and twice the RAM.

But is it enough to justify the addition $800- on a budget?

I'm especially curious about dealing with HD footage, both compressed and uncompressed. Also any of the other applications on FC Studio, especially color, I'm curious to know about any performance differences there...

Thanks!
