Hey all!
Just built my first one - Designare/i9-9900/Radeon VII/64gb RAM - Mojave10.14.6 - and I gotta say, it is sooooo satisfying. Thanks to all of you on this forum, especially @CaseySJ for the golden build. It really feels good to build my own tools!
I'm building exclusively for video editing, hence the pricey build. I almost use FCPX exclusively, with some AE occasionally. I've been looking through all these forums for days and I can't seem to find an up-to-date discussion of best practices for FCPX.
Right now I am running in headless mode, because I know FCPX likes the iGPU. But, is that costing me the performance of the Radeon VII on exports?
Bruce5k @prores 4:2:2 is about 14 sec. I've seen people get to 7-8 seconds, and it seems like they have disabled the iGPU. But, does that cost me performance in the FCPX timeline, which seems to like the iGPU best?
I guess I just want to discuss what the best way to configure this system is? Do I have to prioritize export actions (dGPU) or timeline renders (iGPU), or is there a way to get the best of both worlds?
Thanks for helping a new guy out. This is a great forum, and I look forward to the point where I can help other people along as well.
