we are talking about Thunderbolt 2, which has 20 GBit/s Bus Speed and the “old” Miniport Cables. The system is working fine and is good for most “modern” Applications, which are: I run an iMac Late 2015 with 16 GB RAM, 4 GHZ i7, and an R9 Video Card with 4 GB RAM, the “maximum” you could buy during the days. If you have $600 to spare, it would be worth it to dip your toe into the Apple world but not really for your stated objectives.Īlthough the question seems to be 10 months old, here is an answer in 2022. IMovie, which comes with the Mac, is fairly capable of video editing but not on a par with FCP. While the price may be OK, the specs are way below what you would need for anything but the simplest of editing and sound producing. Maximum RAM is 64GB and is user replaceable.Īs to price, I have seen them go from the high $500’s to $1200 and change.įinal Cut Pro, current version, requires MacOS 10.14, 8GB of RAM and 16GB of VRAM, the 2015 machine has either 2GB or 4GB of VRAM That “might” be sufficient for non-4K editing That said, I probably would not take it further than 10.14.xx (Mojave) It is still supported by Apple and, according to them, is capable of running the latest version of the MacOS (Big Sur). This 2015 could have either a 5400rpm hard drive or a Fusion drive which is a combination of SSD and HDD. That was the first year they started using glue to hold the screen cover in place.
