For regular 4k, 6k, and 8k footage how much does the AfterBurner on the Mac Pro help with your video editing and overall workflow? What Graphics cards do you recommend if we want to actually work with 8K? On the PC side in RED is there any accelerator card that is like the AfterBurner that is recommended if you are working with Red Footage?
Got a tip for us?

Your ORIGINAL question was about a specific RED product like an Afterburner for RED footage, that is the RED ROCKET. It's been discontinued and not worth buying. RED is clear that this has been discontinued. RED has moved everything to METAL based GPU workflows on macOS moving forward.
