[QUOTE="AZRunner, post: 516907, member: 34393"] I've noticed since upgrading that whenever Time Machine is doing a back-up, it slows down my new iMac. It was really bad last night while I was trying to watch a Quicktime video, the video was stuttering and jumping the whole time. I've got 4GB of RAM, so I don't think that should be a problem. After Time Machine finished the backup the video played fine. I never had this problem before the upgrade. I did the simple upgrade. Would a clean install help with this? Could it be the video card that I've heard some new iMacs were having problems with? I'm starting to worry because I just bought Final Cut Studio 2 and I'm about to install it. [/QUOTE]
