Somewhat of a newbie question?

[cbrad8582]

Ive got a 27" Imac (late 2015) i just bought, w/2-tb, 256gb ssd, GPU R9 M395, and ive recently bought 32gb of ram to install in it. My question is, am i going to be able to handle editing 4k video with fcpx pretty easy? Thanks in advance guys & gals......

It should be fine. But you generally don't need more than 16GB RAM for FCP X And I assume you mean the 395 -- the 295 was also year's model and some had some issues with it. What you must have is a RAID 0 external drive to properly handle the video streams.

Yep. I meant 395. Thx for the reply....
