[Avid-L2] Re: i5 vs. i7

 

No real issues. I'm just doing blurs with storage over ethernet to an edit share. Relinking will sometimes cause a main buss thread error but I see that on MacPros too. I'm not sure what the actual configuyration is but it appears it's from a local rental house. I'll check the exact configuration ob Monday.

All running off Thunderbolt. The question is, is there enough bandwidth? Will the sound stay in sync with the client monitor? If it does hang together it has big ramifications for the MacPro and it's future. If it works I have a client who wants to put in 30 of the suckers. Anybody running AVID in this configuration?

Didn't know if MC will actually take advantage of the hyper-threading of the i7. If not, I will use the price difference somewhere else.
