alphonsecpone Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 What do people recommend for effectively running Final Cut Pro 6 and the rest of Studio? I know what the minimum requirements, but was curious more of what was the most you needed for basic editing? I am a student who needs it for school, but am also on a budget. Not looking to win and oscar for editing, just to get me by. Also want to build my own hackintosh so if you know the exact parts (ie the make of the motherboard or graphics card) it would be very helpful.

Umbris Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=144020 Check this thread. This is one of many options. On some posts you will find some tips regarding FCP, but basicaly you need only compatible graphic card (core image quartz extreme) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/155362-whats-needed-for-final-cut/#findComment-1094455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
