Best Mac for PTE AV Studio

[Igor]

Hi,

PTE AV Studio works on any Mac 2012 Late or newer.

If you want to reach ideal smoothness in a fullscreen preview (and executable shows) for heavy animations with complex effects, we would recommend the following Macs:

Best Macs for PTE AV Studio

- Mac Mini (2020), Macbook Air (2020) and Macbook Pro 13 (2020) with Apple M1 chip.

- Macbook Pro 15" or 16" 2015 or newer. 

- iMac 21.5" 4K Retina Middle 2017 or newer

- iMac 27" 5K Retina Late 2015 or newer

- iMac Pro 27" Retina

- New Mac Pro

All these Macs use fast AMD graphics which is very good for PTE AV Studio.

Regarding Macs with Intel graphics

Mac Mini, Macbook Air and Macbook Pro 13" use integrated Intel graphics which not so fast. However the interface of PTE AV Studio works fast and smooth on any Mac. If you create a MP4 video, all compatible Macs are fine for PTE AV Studio. Because your show created as a MP4 video will play smooth on any Mac.

New Macs with Apple M1 chip

In June 2020 Apple has announced a move to own CPU (Apple Silicon) based on ARM technology during next 2 years.

In November 2020 Apple introduced first Macs with M1 chip: Mac Mini, Macbook Air and Macbook Pro 13.

PTE AV Studio for Mac is fully adapted for M1 chip to work with the best peformance.
