Why am I experiencing dropped frames and sluggish performance?
Check your Virtual Memory.
Using Final Cut Pro with Virtual Memory turned on is not advised. Virtual Memory can potentially cause dropped frames on capture and playback, as well as sluggish performance.
To turn off Virtual Memory, quit Final Cut Pro, open the Memory control panel, and turn Virtual Memory to “OFF”
Once this is done, close the control panel and restart the computer for this change to take effect
