I compare the new 2019 15.4" MacBook Pro 2.3GHz i9 with AMD Vega 20 4GB graphics and 32GB of DDR4 RAM with an external graphics card attached in terms of video editing using Adobe Premiere Pro and Blackmagic Davinci Resolve 16 and compare it to the 2019 i9 5K iMac 8 core processor, 64GB of DDR4 RAM, and AMD Radeon Vega 48 8GB graphics.
The codecs that are tested and compared are 4K h.264 footage from Sony cameras like the a7S2 and A7III as well as 8-bit h.265 footage and 10 bit 4K 60 HEVC h.265 codec from the Fujifilm X-T3 which is very difficult to edit in FCX.
Along with those I test stabilization, timeline smoothness and rendering, Canon Cinema RAW Lite from the C200 and RED .R3D RAW 4.5K from Red RAVEN.

Can’t begin to express my gratitude after hours and hours of watching your videos today and you answering question after question and even nuanced things and thoughts I didn’t even realize I had regarding: which Mac to buy, which cameras to buy, other gear, software performance, tips, just a ton of stuff to help me as a TD help my relatively large church finally jump start our video production ministry (outside of just live production of services) from the ground up. (Blackmagic is really seeming to take the cake on all fronts, price point, hardware AND software. Speaking of, curious which lens you use for your BMPCC4K!) Really, thank you, Max, for all your time and effort. I’m also personally really curious if you have any other ways of supporting you besides buying gear from the affiliate links? I also don’t know if you do any consult-type calls for donations or pay, but in my situation, you’ve already answered so many of my questions and steered me in the right direction to the point where just having that last ounce of reassurance and few questions answered would make all the difference. Either way, super appreciate you, subbed, and looking forward to more of your content in the future. 👍 Thanks again!!

Great video. Question: would an eGPU be useful for either the MBP or the iMac for only running one or more external displays and not to run software? In other words, could we use the eGPU for our external displays and spare the native GPU of the work of running the external displays and free up ports on the MBP or iMac, while allowing the native GPU to run our software?

While on the road, I would be doing things like Microsoft Office, e-mail, web, etc., which would be require an eGPU.

So glad you made this video because I've been trying to troubleshoot my setup. I have a maxed out (i9) 2018 MBP and hit walls with my video editing. I needed a bump in performance. So I added Vega 56 e-gpu but the fans on the card haven't even come on once, yet I've experience no gains in performance. I've been trying to figure out why Final Cut just isn't working that card harder (or tell if the card is working at all). This is all very disappointing as I spent 6 months researching and a grand for this "upgrade"

@MaksimYuryev 5 жыл бұрын

Make sure you right click on Final cut in the Applications folder using finder and then click get info, and then "Prefer eGPU". Then download istat menu and when you are editing open it up to see if the eGPU is being used.

Where I live there are not many options and was wondering if I can get an external SSD drive and run FCPX through that and how it the best way to do it? Do I have to make a bootable drive out of the SSD or can I just keep my media on the SSD and run FCPX with the external files stores there? Or DO I have to install a complete OSX to the drive and boot up from that drive? Also, are the Samsung T5 1 TB drive adequate to do it off an iMac? They are really really cheap, about 150.00 for the 1TB SSD drive. Thanks for any ideas or suggestions on the best way to do this. I mainly will be using FCPX, Premiere and Davinci Resolve for 4K prores footage from my BMPCC4K My options are the iMac 27 5K either with base model i5 6 core with pro 570X 4gb or the Pro 575X 4gb.

Resolve timeline speed and exporting takes a performance hit when connected to a vega 64 egpu when using blackmagic raw footage compared to the internal Radeon 560 in a 2017 MBP using the latest resolve 16 beta. Very disappointing. Rendering effects (balance CC, NR, &sharpening) on a timeline(the red to blue bar on top) is faster with the egpu but non-optimized, non edited clips play choppy on the vega 64. They still need to optimize egpu use as the gpu is barely being utilized and doesn’t go above 300mhz when playing unrendered no effects, braw footage. SMH. 🤦🏻‍♂️

YES EGPU ARE GREAT once they become matured tech. If you are in a video editing app, each of those apps and each type of video codec treats processing differently. Some will be CPU dependent, some will use GPU. A mixed timeline can have even more variables. Don't expect miracles with any GPU. You still have to render background proxies.

Perfect - Just saved me wasting a grand. All I needed to know was whether after spending 4 grand on a 2019 macbook pro do I need to an eGPU to render 6K RED footage [Silvertstack in my case] and it appears no. I'll save the shekels and get a Nestor box and whack in a couple of AMD cards in that beast.

Thank you really much ! This video really helps me a lot ! What about screen on MacBook Pro : 8 bits and iMac : 10 bits ? Is it better for photography ?

The display quality is actually the same as far as color accuracy both P3 and 500 nits. I don't think the 5K is a true 10 bit just 8 bit dithered. Both are really good for photo editing.

@@MaksimYuryev Thank you for your quick answer, then I have no problem to switch on a newer model of macbook pro (I still have my old MBP 15" mid 2014 ^^). Have a good day ! (In France I'll be night time)

Baseline CPU and Vega seems like enough for most people, I'd definitely get an eGPU for something like streaming but even then a 580 is probably enough for gaming/streaming at the same time. (If you can stream and game over thunderbolt, not sure how that works)
