Apple doesn’t specify which Xeon W CPU it’s using in the base model of the Mac Pro, but we do know it has eight cores, 16 threads, and a turbo boost of 4GHz. Looking at Intel’s ark listings, that is similar to the Xeon W-3223—although the cache is a little larger on the Mac Pro CPU. The W-3223 has an MSRP of $749 but is not available on. Recent builds of Premiere Pro integrate support for Apple's Afterburner accelerator card introduced as an option on the 2019 Mac Pro. Currently, the software offers decode acceleration of ProRes. Apple Afterburner benchmarks for Adobe CC? Technical Does anyone know of benchmarks anywhere for how the ProRes Afterburner card in the MacPro effects playback and encoding? Created to transform the workflow for film and video professionals, Afterburner accelerates ProRes and ProRes RAW video codecs in Final Cut Pro X, QuickTime Player X, and supported third-party applications. A PCI Express card exclusively for Mac Pro, Afterburner can be installed in any full-length slot, but it delivers maximum capability in a PCIe x16 slot.
Apple offers its current Mac Pro for professional video editing also with the 2,500 Euro expensive Afterburner PCIe x16 accelerator card, which accelerates the work (more precisely the encoding, decoding and transcoding) with ProRes (RAW) - it supports the playback of up to six 8K ProRes RAW streams or 23 4K ProRes RAW streams simultaneously.

Until now, support has been limited to Apple's editing program FCPX, QuickTime Player X and a few other third party apps - now support for Adobe's Premiere Pro editing program has also been announced. It was to be guessed that this has been in the works for a long time, since the presentation of the Mac Pro on the WWC in connection with Afterburner also showed Adobe and Blackmagic logos.

Adobe has now announced in a posting in the Premiere Pro Forum that newer betas (from 14.3.0) of Premiere Pro/After Effects and Media Encoder already include support for Apple's Afterburner accelerator card and can be tried out by users who used it. Currently, decoding using Afterburner is supported for ProRes 4444 and 422 videos - ProRes RAW is not yet supported. To do so, you need to enable rendering via Metal in the respective Adobe programs (which is the default).

Unfortunately, there is no way to see if Afterburner is actually used in the respective Adobe App when working with ProRes 4444/422 at the moment - but the acceleration should be noticeable if Afterburner works.
Epubor ultimate 3 0 7 9. The development team responsible for creating the Adobe Premiere Pro beta release have this week announced they have added support for Apple’s Afterburner accelerator card which is an optional component available for 2019 Mac Pro systems.
The Apple Afterburner is an accelerator card for Mac Pro (2019), created to enhance Apple ProRes and ProRes RAW workflows for film and video professionals. Any Apple application that plays back ProRes or ProRes RAW files can take advantage of the capabilities of Afterburner.

“Currently we support decode acceleration of ProRes 4444 and 422 codecs using the Afterburner card. Please note: ProRes RAW acceleration via the Afterburner card is not currently supported – although CPU decompression is available for ProRes RAW. The Metal renderer must be selected for use in the applications (this is already the default setting)”
