Expert advice badly needed!

Here's the problem:

Your system may have far too many background processes going on. You see, Dell and many other big-name PC companies like to bombard their systems with tons of bloatware that not only eat up disk space, but also tons of system resources that cannot be easily freed up.

And in my own personal experience, I never had a pre-built consumer PC from a big name brand that performed anywhere near as well as a decently tuned self-built PC with off-the-shelf parts. In fact, one of those I used performed worse than even a PC that's three CPU generations older than it!

I think we need @RjL190365 to post on this ... working with 4k 10 bit 200 Mbps H.264 clips ... that's a load of long-GOP work. I'd like to know if your CPU and that GPU together have the right bits for the H.264 stuff.

Hi John,

Sorry man. 60P may be a bridge too far. How does it work at 24 and 30 fps? If that works, then you still may need to make proxies or transcode the footage. See how that goes.

Thanks,
