Advice regarding computer build for Premiere

Hi all!

 

I’m in the process of getting a PC built. I’ve been trawling the forums and Youtube and have come to deciding between 2 builds (attached).

 

Any advice would be helpful! I’d say my usage would be 50% Premiere Pro, 25% Touchdesigner and 25% Blender. When it comes to Premiere, I create a lot of music videos which are usually very effects-laden. I regularly edit 4k footage but have already gotten used to a proxy workflow. I am trying to strike a balance between seamless real-time performance and improved render/export times.

 

Keep in mind, I live in Vietnam, so some components are hard to come by or severely over-priced.

 

Thanks in advance!

    I would wait another five months if you can. The GPUs are still a bit pricey and the Nvidia RTX 4000 series will be out in another five months. Your best bet is to get an Alder CPU and an Nvidia graphics card. That way you can make use of Quick Sync and Nvenc as seen in the video below.

    Unfortunately I can't wait, as my workhorse laptop recently died and I'm having to borrow a friend's computer which isn't necessarily built for the type of work I do.

     

    I think I'm going to end up going with an i7-12700 and an RTX3070.

     

    Thanks for the advice!

    That setup will work just fine  but make sure you have an adequate power supply. 32 GB of RAM will work OK but 64 would be better.
