  • Best PC for MC6

    Posted by Sandy Shapiro on March 19, 2012 at 1:52 am

    I’ve dropped FCP and thinking of dropping their workstations too. Can anyone tell me the best PC to run MC6? I’ll be working with Alexa footage. Doing minimal After Effects work.

    Thanks!

    HP z800 or soon to be released z820 is a good workstation.

    I’d agree the Z800 is a fantastic machine. A little too Maxc like for me in build terms but amazingly fast. The Z400 is also a very good machine. But I’d wait and see what the new versions bring as they promise to deliver even more and for MC6 it’s all about the CPU power.
