My Video Editing Laptop MacBook Pro Mid 2012 - Is it still worth it in 2018?

[@MarcosRochaTV]

These are the External Hard Drives I use when I am editing: Main One: amzn.to/2GWobKA Secondary Drive: amzn.to/2nHjOLe

[@hey_its_nanii]

This video was great for so many reasons. Take this thumbs up my man

[@ohyofavis]

You are absolutely right! I think everyone should know that sometimes the gears don't matter, the finished product is the one that matters.

[@MarcosRochaTV]

👍🏼

[@CharlesDuante]

I'm still using my Macbook Pro 13inch (mid 2012) i7. I upgraded it to 16gb ram and 256gb ssd. I was still able to use After Effects, Illustrator, and Photoshop with minimal lags. As for the rendering part, there you'll notice that it takes a while, escpecially if you render certain effects on After Effects. But still it's a usable machine in 2018.

[@MarcosRochaTV]

Good to hear i am not the only one using "old" technology.

[@CharlesDuante]

Marcos Rocha Yes! You're not alone, mate! I plan to replace it when it's no longer usable.

[@LinusKnight]

Charles Duante what model?

[@bansgandhi1846]

Hey asking for a friend. I am trying to install imovie and it says can’t be installed and it says 10.13.6 version required and when I m trying to update that software it says can’t be updated

[@jomac_ph]

Thanks for sharing man, is it sill worth to buy the 2012 i7 this 2019? Im just using it to edit a 10-30min 1080p videos, upscaled to 4k upon render. Thanks for the input

[@AprilLeon]

Thank you so much for this video because i also purchase a 2012 used macbook pro about a year ago because i didn't want to sit at my Mac desktop all the time. I noticed while editing my videos in fcpx it was so slow it stalls and freezes i took it in and the computer place Suggested the flash. I honestly thought they was trying to take me for extra money. I then this evening decided to purchase a refurbished Mac book pro from Apple until i saw the Prices. So glad I found your video because you just stated the same thing the repair place stated. However it sounded more believable coming from you because you have the exact same one as well you described everything they stated. I will be bringing my pro back in to get those upgrades. Thank you so much as you just saved me over 2k. Definitly subbing. Great video

[@MarcosRochaTV]

Hey, if you are just using the MacBook Pro for creating KZbin videos, then just update the RAM to 16GB and the hard drive to an SSD. Those two things should speed up your laptop. I am glad this helped you out!

[@AprilLeon]

Marcos Rocha thank you so much i will be saving this info to inform them exactly what i want and need thank you

[@kahanakitty]

you can upgrade the RAM and SSD as a DIY ~ i just did my RAM for

Really like the second camera angle. I love your candid approach to videos, it is so refreshing. You don't allow things to get in your way of making a video which I enjoy and your presentation style is fresh. Keep up the good work.

I am going to do more behind the scenes shots. I also like when people show me how they record videos. I am trying to be more of "myself" on camera this year.

You are right. Keep making these videos. You really changed the way I'm going to use my money, wisely.

[@julskechap]

i really appreciate that you put great value on the final output iself and not the gear. i 100% believe that. more for less!

[@MarcosRochaTV]

I fight with my lust for gear and being happy with what I have. At the end of the day, you just have to create regardless.

As long as it doesn't slow you down tremendously, then run with it.

Hola Marcos! Have the same macbook pro and also did some upgrades like you only have to change my graphics card(whole motherboard)😭. But till now its work super for me and don't wanna change it for newer one! Thanks for the Video!

Same here, I am not going to change the graphics card. When it becomes too slow that I cant take it, then I will buy a new one.

Thanks you sir! I have this laptop and wanted to use Final cut x. This video is extremely helpful! I did some research on the net but the info I was getting was from a lot of tech nerds and not creators. You're videos are amazing and your using this system that's all the convincing I need.

[@MarcosRochaTV]

Oh man, exactly. I too was trying to find information online but there's no clear answer. I wanted to share this because I am not super techie and I don't think most people are either.

[@kahanakitty]

iʻm not doing video work (yet) ~ iʻm an aspiring actor and lighting/sound designer, but like you, i "depend" on my gear AND more importantly, my creativity and skills. i was actually looking for a remote screen to help with my current stack of lighting design gigs, and this video showed up! iʻm using the same laptop as you, and just bumped up to 16G RAM yesterday, and am saving for a 1TB SSD for DAW work. i solidly agree with you about tech. your pep talk really hits home for me: are we creating? does our gear help, or hinder (regardless of how old or new it is?). iʻm saving your video for the pep talk!!!!

[@MarcosRochaTV]

Awesome! Just create things. It's more important to do something today than to wait to have the "right" gear.

[@Sandra_Mejia]

I was still using my old Mid 2012 Retina MacBook Pro but it was starting to lag and slow down when I edited it videos so bought the samsung portable t3 ssd 500gb and that helped a lot! You definitely don't need a new computer to edit! However, I just bought the Mid 2016 MacBook Pro and wow what a difference it makes! And you're right my old mac was still working great and it was beasting it out with my 1080p footage but it could not handle my 4k footage with premiere pro thats why i decided it was time to update my computer.

I am all for spending on the best gear you can afford.

can i upgrade jsut the RAM or SSD too?

How much did the upgrade cost you? Also did you do the upgrade yourself or did you take it into a computer repair shop to have it worked on? If u did the upgrade yourself maybe u can post a video showing how its done,?!?

[@mydangfinance2815]

Great video man. Are you still using the 2012 macbook in 2021?

[@ChadEveryday]

I think we all fall into that trap from time to time...I'm looking at camera upgrades right now, but for practice reasons. I'm with you on using an older computer, I use a late 2012 Mac Mini. It serves me just as good today as it did when I bought it. Like you though, I did have to upgrade my RAM.

I made this video because all of last year I got it in my head that I needed a new computer. But, I am going to save that money and worry instead on CREATING STUFF.

Marcos, your line about not making excuses to buy latest gear before making something and about how we can use our old devices is for me really really right. I am a little bit geek about technologies and used to think that upgrading is very important. But recently, i thoroughly think, what use of it if you have every latest but produce nothing better? Well, in short, you are really, really right.

Exactly, you need to start where you are at.

I've got the same system that I upgraded to a 256 SDD and 16 gig of ram from Crucial. way cheaper to upgrade from Crucial than spending ridiculous money on apple ram and SSD. this thing boots up in about 5 seconds. Only think I'm missing is a 4k screen and I was considering (but probably not just yet) one of the new iMac's because frankly the specs on them are really robust for the cost. an iMac 3.4 quad core i5 4k display with 8 gig of ram and a 512 ssd is going for 1500$ and even less if you get an apple certified refurbished model which I always do and have never had a problem. so when your trusty MBP finally needs replacement you should consider one of the iMacs because their specs are as robust as 5000$ Mac pro's from just a few years ago.

I totally agree man! It gets the job done. You have to think about these laptops like Cars. All though we might have older models and they don't look as slick, they can still drive as fast as the newest models (or nearly as fast).

I am working on a Q&A video, I will answer this question. The short answer is that I still use this laptop for editing and it works!

I have the Mid 2012 Retina 15-inch and find it to still be sufficient for my needs. The new ones don't offer enough to justify the price tag IMHO, hopefully in 2018 Apple lowers the price back down, fixes the keyboard issues, and uses Intel Coffee Lake CPUs making the 13-inch a quad-core and 15-inch a 6-core.

Thanks for the helpful video, you got a new sub! I might buy a late 2013 Retina MacBook Pro 15" with 128GB SSD, 16GB, Intel GPU at 1500MB. No Nvidia M750 GeForce....that was my worry, if it can handle the 4K footage from my OSMO, I'd be happy as a clown.

Thanks! I am pretty sure that computer will do just fine.

[@Qibilii]

Thanks Marcos! I'm ordering it this afternoon.

for some reason I've got it in to my head I need a 15"MacBook Pro, or an iMac even if they are from 2012 when I have a 2015 13" MacBook Pro and I think the reason might be because I am bored and have not much else to think about.

[@MarcosRochaTV]

Exactly... this is the same reason I am always buying camera equipment... I get bored.
