PP5.5 very slow on brand new iMac


i have seen number of threads similar this, none have been helpful.

 

i purchased brand new 21.5" imac late last year.

processor 2.8 ghz intel core i7

memory 12 gb 1333 mhz ddr3

 

installed cs5.5, , found pretty slow. got more ram. hav 12gb of ram. saw improvement, it's still slow. premiere worst. when press play, on low-res video footage, takes couple seconds start playing.

 

i clicked project settings, , renderer, "mercury playback engine software only" option grayed out.

 

i looked @ threads... , apparently have manually set graphics card or that? know nothing that.

 

have had enough of this. frusterating. sold in pp5.5's speed, , has been extremely slow.

any suggestions? thanks!

your 2011 imac has amd (formerly ati) gpu - , cannot upgrade or replace @ all. worse, premiere pro cs5.5 not support opencl @ gpu acceleration in mpe engine (cs5.5 supports cuda, used recent nvidia gpus, gpu acceleration). worst of all, imac's gpu has 512mb of dedicated graphics ram. , because imac not have enough dedicated graphics ram, premiere pro permanently locked mpe software-only mode.
