I mainly use Final Cut Pro X and I will be buying the new Mac Pro and can't decided if I should get 32GB RAM or 64GB. What's the ideal amount? Eventually, I'll probably get Adobe's CC suite, so I am also interested in the ideal amount of RAM for Premiere as well. And out of curiosity how much RAM is ideal for Avid?
I planning on ordering the Quad with D700s and 1TB SSD. The only question left is the RAM. If I should go 64GB then I would go aftermarket and buy Crucial 64GB RAM for $800. If I buy 32GB RAM, then I would order Apple's RAM for $450 (education price), which is about the same aftermarket price. So, an increase of $350 to get 64GB instead of 32GB.
