How much processing power is enough for PT 12?
How much? Well...
PowerBook G4 667MHz with 512MB memory was plenty back in 2002 when we were happy with standard FireWire storage speed.
Sure, things have changed a lot as far as OSX is concerned, but point here is that audio mixer itself doesn't consume much resources. Whatever plugins you need to use is the real resource hog.
Generally speaking; nowadays you want to have i7 CPU and minimum of 8GB memory. Most of that extra (compared to G4/512MB) is spent on operating system.
