2016 15" 4K multicam video editing?

[Rasta4i]

Does anyone have any experience with the new macbook pro 15" and multiple 4K cameras in fcpx? I know the better option would be to get an iMac or build a Windows workstation, however I don't want to go back to Windows. I also need a new laptop and a semi maxed out pro is cheaper than a iMac and the 12" macbook.

So I'm looking for support with multiple 4K video streams from proper cameras and best for money

Thanks

2016 15" MBP TB with the 460.. recently transitioned from 1080p60 to 4k30 footage.. FCP runs amazing. Yes there is rendering and optimization, however FCP optimizes everything for best experience. For example, I was stabilizing my footage in the background, while scrubbing through my timeline. The stabilization tasks paused when I was scrubbing, and picked back up once I stopped. Small things like that didn't effect my experience with the tasks I was doing at all.

So in a nutshell, In my opinion: FCPX handles 4k footage like a breeze and you won't have any issues.
