The i7 processor in the older Mac has H264 Encoding/decoding acceleration not present on the Westmere Xeon series processors. Not sure Avid actually makes any use of it.

I don't remember if that was the case. If they are do you have any reason why your older but more powerful mac doesn't work correctly?

I have an 27" 3.5GHz quad-core i7 iMac, and could load it with MC 8.x. That would certainly be a newer setup, but apart from it's video card it benchmarks lower than the Westmere, and it has less RAM.
