[QUOTE="BillN, post: 214864, member: 279"] I have just upgraded my 2009 iMac, (intel processor and 8Gbte of RAW), to the new iMac 27" Retina with 8gbte of RAW My main cameras are D7100/D700/D750 and I use the DP3M quite a lot converting the Sigma RAW's to 85Mbte 16 bit Tiffs in the Sigma software, (poor), I then use LR and CS6 Sigma is (was) slow slow slow to process ... try stitching three shots together and processing that! IMHO, it is the speed of the processor that makes the difference in rendering the still images, although I am planning to stick another 16Mbte alongside the 8Mbte ....... (I realise that unmatched RAM is not as effective as matched RAM but 24Mbte of unmatched RAM still be 8Mbte of matched RAW) So what am I saying ......... spend money on the processor first if you want speed, but presumably that's obvious [/QUOTE]
