I not dealing with 12 bit RAW files kind of pointless when you are rendering back to 8 bit 4:2:0 once its rendered you won't see a difference to make it worth the time. I am dealing with 3 cameras directly H.264 with I7 Quad Core processors but what is more important is how many CUDA cores your graphics card has. It also goes without saying you must use SSD drives for the best transfer rates. I didn't get the most expensive video card but went for the most CUDA cores as possible. I didn't mention the extra $1000 I ended spending on extra SSD drives. With $4000 you can build a monster of a machine. 4K is definitely worth investing in.
