    so annoyed rn i edit 6K RAW on a gaming PC 馃槫 Playback is choppy, and everyone tells me to use proxies. But it adds steps and disk usage. Is it really worth it, or should I just upgrade my hardware? I'd love to hear how others organize this: storage, settings and whether the time spent generating files actually pays off over a whole project. Thanks in advance for sharing ur setups and tips.

    yeahhh check if your GPU supports hardware decoding for ur exact codec profile. if it does, native editing may work fine. if not, proxies help hugely. fingers crossed 馃

    been there man in Resolve, proxies are generated per clip and you can toggle them on and off with Playback > Use Proxy Media if Available 馃う when exporting, Resolve uses the original files automatically.

    @aortiz_15 Turns out my GPU doesn't decode 4:2:2. Proxies it is, and it's night and day.
