Hello,
I recently purchased the Vfx controls and I am thinking of buying a mac pro.
It will be a good choice. What do you think.
Thank you all.

Thanks for the comments.
In your opinion, what is the best option?
I want to buy a PC to start and do not know what to choose.
Any help is welcome.

You're gonna need a laptop with at least an i5/i7 CPU (2.3 Ghz of faster), and a dedicated video card (512 VRAM or better).

hi!

i used lenovo y470 i72nd gen with 8gb DDR3 ram & 2gb dedicated video. it works real fine promis! since i started Vfx it never chrash or hang in my gig also the video was great and faster response,

also sony vaio its great but a little expensive or asus G74Sx

if i were u id go for asus, do not depend on the brand, its the specs that matters specially the dedicated videocard with a powerful motherboard! because it is very useful on Vfx software.

cheers!
