Question

Need a new cpu to run Premiere

Hi everyone. I am looking for a new cpu that would run Premiere smoothly. I am currently on windows 10 but may have to switch to a mac (have to do Apple ProRez delivery's). The Mac Pro (trash can style) is just too expensive, and the mac mini is probably too slow so I was looking at an iMac. But a lot of what the affordable models have only have is an i5 processor. Would Premiere still run smoothly with something like that especially if I am editing 4k footage. Any advice would really be appreciated.

    CPU is the processor.

    Do you mean that you need a new computer or a new processor?

    So you are keeping the same computer, but just want to change the processor in that computer to one that you can run when you install the Mac operating system on that same computer?
