Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have Final Cut Pro X, running on Mac OS X v 10.7.5 Processor 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Memory 1GB 1067 MHz RAW. Is there any settings I can choose on FCPX to speed it up, the problem I am having is that when I want to watch what I've edited it lags, so I don't have smooth playback to view the video.
Would buying a bigger ram change this? or are there settings on FCPX I can change to help.
Thanks
Final Cut Pro X, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
Your RAM amount doesn't meet the minimun configuration:

Ok thanks a lot.
Do you use FCPX? if so how much ram do you have, and do you ever have lagging issues?
Also where can I find out how much VRAM is on the macbook?
Thanks again.
Go to Apple Logo in the menu bar -> About this mac -> More info

1GB Memory is not enough to even run Lion properly, let alone FCPX which can be a memory hog anyway. I would install 8GB minimum on any Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion with FCPX.

4Gb for a casual FCPX user would be fine, but I agree, I would go for 8gigs.
I currently use 16gb and it runs pretty fast.
FCPX Slow, can't edit properly
