Re: [Avid-L2] iMac performance estimates...

Highly interesting, and I have a friend who wants to know the same thing.
However, your question does not make sense at all.
Performance relies depends on the source codec / AMA or not.
(A H264 / 265 AMA file is way more stressful than a similar res DNxHR or ProRes Avid MXF file, if file IO is not an issue (and that is the cheapest part.)

Asking for a friend...

It looks like he may be able to upgrade his aging old school cheese grater and is looking at an iMac. From an appropriate Thunderbolt 3 drive,  what type of 4k performance might he expect? He'd like to at least be able to play 2 or 3 streams simultaneously. 

Thanks!
