It would be great to be able to give a straight answer, but there are too many variables. Even something like the SSD option of the Mac model chosen might mean that it can or cannot do something. Going to Resolve, there are literally dozens of variables involved. Even if it's just 12K footage on a 4K timeline with a LUT - will Resolve be using Linear or Tetrahedral interpolation for the LUT? This matters as it's extra processing power required, etc. -
True. I think the point is to exactly realise what such difference actually means... in resolution numbers, as for instance : ) What one allows and the other one instead :- ) -
Sure, but crucial for what? If it's the difference between being able to play realtime with a LUT for editing purposes or not then it's probably a critical amount, but that will depend on the timeline resolution. If you want to colour grade then some things need to be done at full timeline resolution and some things don't. Grading in front of clients is a specific need that some have and some don't have. If you're only grading with simple adjustments then that is very very different to doing intensive tasks like NR or any of the AI things. So, "critical" really depends on the application. For typing on these forums, I'd say no, but everything else is a question mark....

I think the intention of the OP wondering is about how crucial 33% of an increase of the number of GPU cores is, though... Just sayin' :- )

Further to what @eatstoomuchjam said, I think there are only three types of performance: it can't play ungraded footage realtime (ie, you can't edit with it) it can play footage realtime but can't do it with a heavy grade (ie, you can do some colour grading realtime) it can play footage realtime with a heavy grade (ie, it's reliable and you can colour grade live in front of a client) The spec required for level 2 should be researchable and BM would have made this pretty efficient I would imagine. The spec for level 3 is a "how long is a piece of string" question, depending on a ton of variables including timeline resolution and only you can answer it, but if you're going to be doing lots of heavy things like NR and spatial treatments on a 4K timeline then you're probably well into Ultra / Studio territory.
