[QUOTE="Openskies2009, post: 1614877, member: 336200"] Hey everyone! New here on this forum! I have been just budgeted money for a new MacPro for my business, so far I have been using a MacBook I got three years ago with the following2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 - 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 memory - AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB - with a 500GB internal hard drive. I work heavily with video animation and editing using Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premier, Cinema 4D… Id like to have a setup where Photoshop or a batch of video would be transcoding at the same time as working heavily switching back and forth between after effects and premiere. So far my macbook has been able to take this pressure for the most part but its still a bit slow holding me back. Most of the shoots are 3 multi cam 1080 24p but could easily see moving onto 4k in a year or so with the same setup. Two questions. I have a budget of $3500. The standard setup without customization would cover this but would the hardware be enough power without upgrading anything? If so, it looks like I would have the budget to upgrade the Memory or Storage. Which one, or are there any assessories I should consider? I already have wireless mouse and keyboard monitor.. Thanks!
