[Shane Ross] “Google Chrome messing with non SIP enabled macs”
Still seems like a ton of questions to be answered.
Does this affect machines without Media Composer installed? What about the combination of the two should have resulted in this situation? Obviously, if it were only Chrome-related, it would be a much more widespread issue. I realize that you have to disable the SIP, but is there more to it?
Did anyone report whether this occurred on Macs that do not have Chrome installed?
And I wonder whether Google will release another update that fixes this.

Appears to be fixed. Apparently a COW IT issue.

[Howie Young] “What type of projects do you edit?”
I work mainly out of a shop that is a creative production company. We produce, edit, and finish commercials, corporate videos, online content, and entertainment projects for a variety of clients. The shop has 9 workstations (iMac, iMac Pro, 2013 Mac Pro) connected to 10GigE central storage (LumaForge and QNAP). We shoot nearly everything in 4K and deliver in 4K and 1080. We are mainly an Adobe shop cutting in Premiere Pro, although I also do some cutting in FCPX, plus color correction in Resolve.
Here are some samples: https://vimeo.com/oliverpeters

[Howie Young] “I’ve used the 5K iMac and the fan immediately ramps up and gets very loud when rendering 4K footage.”
Since you seem to be set on the iMac Pro and budget is an issue, then this config should work:
8-core
32 or 64 GB RAM
Vega 64 GPU
1TB SSD

[Howie Young] “I prefer the iMac Pro over a 5K iMac because of the silent fan noise”
We have 5 iMac Pros and 3 5K iMacs. For general editing, very little difference between the two.
[Howie Young] “The model he recommends is slightly out of my budget.”
What is your budget and do you need to factor in peripherals, external storage, monitoring, adapters, i/o, etc?

[Tony West] “I have flown the F3 for years because I need all those connections myself”
BTW – here’s a look at the new Sony FX9. Very nice color science in these test clips.

Read through this. Sam does a pretty good roundup and addresses some of your points.
The iMac Pro is likely overkill for what you do. A loaded 5K iMac may serve you just as well and be more cost-effective.

And of course, who didn’t see this coming?

Are there any plug-ins or processing effects involved, like a de-noiser?
