  RE: Render uses just about all my CPU
  You want to encode to fragmented MP4, and keyframe interval to 1, and ofcourse AVC. Vegas can't read fragmented MP4 so you have auto remux turned on to create conventional mp4 which you use in Vegas. You don't want to use MKV because the remux to

  RE: Vegas 21 (315) Lag when handling clips (Trimming and Moving)
  What version were you using? You said you skipped 300 and 314- did you also skip 21.315? 22.93 is a refined version of 21.315 in my opinion. The old versions like 21.208 used so4compound decoder for HEVC (and benefited from Intel QSV decoding). You

  1: As from that generation hardware, your PC needn't any upgrade, especially for HD-editing. Yes you can do it, for a psychological satisfaction - with that saying, you will waste money for some 15-20% theoretical improvement. 2: As for the 32GB RAM

  RE: Play back lagging at 422 10bit
  ProRes raw does not work, ProRes does. Yes, regular ProRes works fantastic in VEGAS, to the point that I'd say using it for 10+ bit shooting is preferable to upgrading your hardware (assuming you already have a decently-modern system) when it comes
