A:Answer Almost any machine made in the last 8 years will process a 4K video, it is just a matter of performance. I edited a 4K video from my wife's Panasonic camera on a 2009 Apple iMac with 4-core i5 and 12 GB of RAM. It worked but was it ever slow. An i7 processor (which has special instructions for video rendering) is key as well as a modest amount of RAM, 16GB is sufficient. An Nvidia video card and (depending on the software used), the more cores, the faster. Note that more CUDA cores does not increase quality, just video rendering speed.
