Hi, I would like clarification for those who work on a Mac. I have an iMac with a Mojave 10.14.5 system. In the Poser window, appears at the top right, for the SuperFly, Intel Core i7-3635QM CPU@2.40 GHz . Will I be able to use Poser 12 with these features?

Hi RAGraphicDesign, that certainly seems plausible. Perhaps of more importance than just the CPU and clock speed are the amount of RAM and video card installed on your iMac.
Looking at the online lists, that looks like the CPU from an early 2013 15" MacBook Pro, rather than an iMac. In any case, just on that CPU alone, you should certainly be able to run Poser. Having more RAM will mean you can open larger scenes and render them easily. Render speed will be something that only you can judge, though :-)
Choosing About this Mac from the Apple menu will get you lots of information, but whether it's an iMac or a MacBook Pro, as long as you have the maximum memory that those systems can be expanded with, you will get their best results. For machines of that age, the RAM should be quite cheap, now, and can be user installed. I have two iMacs from 2011 and 2013, and have upgraded both to 32GB, which was completely painless.

Hi anOmalus, sorry if I didn't reply before, but with the fact that the site doesn't communicate notifications about the forums, I only read today. My iMac has 16GB 2667Mhz DDR4.

Hi RAGraphicDesign, you should be fine with 16GB RAM :smiling:
