iMac vs Mac Pro?

[darknlight]

Someone is selling the computer below for $1400.

Is this fast enough to edit Final Cut PRO X?

(Right now, I have a 2009 iMac - 3.06 Ghz iNtel Core 2 DUO w 16 gb and its just not fast enough)

Will i see a big difference if i switch to this?


Dual Quad 3.2 GHz Xeon processors
16 Gb RAM
Two NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT graphics cards - will support 4 monitors
Two 1Tb hard drives

As Final Cut Pro X can spread work over multiple processors, I'd say this would be an upgrade.

Agree. But the first thing you'll wanna do is sell the two 8800GT cards and get a 680 card to replace them.
