Hello everybody.
I have a 2011 27 inches iMac with 4gb RAM.
My problem is that when I'm editing 1080p videos with Premiere, or just doing previews with After Effects it runs really slow, making it terrible to work with.
I've read that 2011 iMac's RAM memory can be upgraded up to 16gb, and my question is: is it worth it upgrading it? I mean, what worries me is to spend 100-200€ on it and just have a slight improvement for editing.
In that case I'd start to think in selling my iMac, and maybe even get a PC because although there is no programs like Final Cut, I can get better hardware for the same price and still edit on Premiere and After Effects.
What do you guys think?? Thank you for your time
