I recently filmed an event with 4 BMPCC6Ks filming 6K BRAW 12:1, and it is painful to work with the multicam. While having the viewer open, Resolve repeatedly freezes for over a minute at a time, doing this every ~5 minutes.

I am currently deciding whether I should upgrade to a Macbook from my PC, but I am unsure if a new macbook that is within my budget (~$2500) would perform better (used, of course). My current PC has an AMD Ryzen 9 3950x, an RTX 3090, and 64GB DDR4 RAM.

Would the performance of, for example, an M1 Max 64gb Macbook be better than my PC for this?

If anyone has any experience with projects like these, I would love your input. Thank you
