I'm going to have to invest in a new "M" card ("Maxwell" processing)
The NVidia M6000 is the monster card. But very, very expensive. I'm looking at the M4000 which is cheaper and has an HEVC dedicated encoder.
That's what your lacking...GPU computing power.
Of course you still need a bad ass CPU with tons of memory as well for all the rendering tasks that can't be done with GPU to make the whole thing nice and smooth.
I have the I 7 XTreme CPU processor with 24 GB of RAM
But even with all of that...I can barely cut through H265 files with effects and plugins. I need to get that "M" card as soon as possible.

Thank you Robbie, that is exactly the type of post I was hoping to see.
The NVidia M6000 card is ~$6,800 AUD - wow! When you said expensive, I thought maybe $1500 max.
I take it you do all of your work on a windows machine? Do you run a dedicated editing machine ?
The appeal of the iMac is it can be ordered and at my door in days and all I do is press power button and begin working.
