YorkiesWorld Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Hi everyone, first of all here are my specs: AMD FX-4100 quad Core a processor 3.6GHz Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 GPU 16GB RAM OSX 10.9.5 I have had some experience using Final Cut and notice it tends to get quite slow when there's a few extra bits and pieces in the timeline of my project etc... Could this be to do with my CPU or my GPU or maybe even RAM? I know Hackintosh is a lot better on Intel CPUs so I thought maybe this could be what is making things a little sluggish? Everything else works fine! Should I upgrade to Intel and go through the trouble of getting everything back up and running again, or could it be done by simply upgrading my RAM? Cheers!

slead Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I would try with RAM because the more you have the more the computer can cache, meaning it will be faster and I would also try an SSD (unless you already have an SSD) good luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/302146-amd-or-intel-cpu-for-final-cut-pro-on-hackintosh/#findComment-2078436 Share on other sites More sharing options...
