Rekordbox Video Specs

Hi Team,

I would be purchasing a new laptop to use RB Video on and was confused about the specs that i need to go for.

I'm sure you are aware that with the new Intel 8th Gen Processors, there's something called as Turbo Boost Tecch that boosts your processor to the max when needed

So the question here is would it be fine to buy a laptop with an i7 processor (4 Cores) that has a Base Freq of 1.80 Ghz but a Max Freq of 4.00Ghz? or an i5 Processor (4 Cores) with Base Freq of 2.30 Ghz and Max Freq of 4.00 Ghz

Or

Do we need the base frequency to be 2.20 Ghz for i7 as mentioned on the System Requirement page and 2.50 Ghz above for the i5?

P.S:

Would be combining the above with a 128/256 GB SSD along with a 8GB RAM and a GeForce GPU.

Appreciate your response.

 

Thank You.

We don't necessarily recommend running the turbo boost, especially if you encounter other performance issues such as pops or clicking in the audio.

An i5 @ 2.3GHz is below the minimum of 2.5GHz; that's not to say it won't run, but it's the minimum. The recommended processor is an i7 @ 2.2GHz. With the additional cores, there's more pipelines to do the work, so a clock speed lower than the i5's is acceptable.
