  • Will MC run on 1.8Ghz G5 Mac w/4G RAM?

    Hi,need a quick answer on this one. Looking to buy a Mac second hand and get the MC upgrade for my Xpress Pro. Will it run? Well? I can’t spring for an Avid qualified workstation. The computer already has FCP Studio 2 & cs3 on it.

    Thanks,

    Well, I’d bet it would run, but it really depends on what you are doing. The ‘official’ specs are HERE It might run better with a Mojo. If you aren’t taxing the system much (lots of muliticam, layers, etc.) it might be worth it. If nothing else, you’ve got a good graphics / FCP station…
