  • I would be interested in the answer to this as well, thanks.

  • Hi All,

    I wanted to chime in on this thread since I have a new imac 5k, and wanted to ask other 5k owners a question.
    I have the i7 4gHz version, 32 GB RAM with the AMD Radeon R9 M295X card.

    Running Premiere CC fine, FYI, better than my 2012 macbook pro.

    My issue is FCP 7. I know I know it’s an old software, but I have a client who has an project that I still need to cut.

    The program ran fine until I tried to render, and found myself looking at render times that were 20+ minutes, for task that took about 1-2 min on my 2012 macbook pro. Just incredibly slow. I tested several different sequences, and same slow render. I’m baffled, this machine should be faster. Is it an issue with the card, the software? Any other ideas to test? Has anyone else tried edit/export in FCP7 on this machine?

    Appreciate any ideas and help.

    Shandor
