Its configuration is great, above the average of the majority of people. The reason the premiere is not using your video card as it should, is because Adobe is problem with Nvidia's Cuda Cores, try to use AMD Opencl render or intel graphics and you'll see that it's going to render much faster. To test, simply remove your video card and activate Intel Graphics or an AMD Video Card. Opencl is the answer

Hi! Happy new year!

I want to ask the same question, but... I've already bought a new graphic card. It's an ASUS Strix GTX 1080 Ti. I'll attach the info below:

I have:

- Intel i7 4790 - 3.60 Ghz

- 16 GB Ram DDR3 1600 Mhz

- Windows 10 Pro 64 Bits

- SSD Kingston HyperX 240 GB (OS and Soft)

- HDD WD Black 7200 RPM 1 TB (Files and stuff)

- Graphic Card Asus Strix GTX 1080 Ti

The question is... How could I have the best performance in Premiere Pro 2017/2018?

I've tried to edit some videos recorded with my drone (4k 60fps) and I've had a lot of problems. I can't play a video in premiere without it have a lag.

Did I buy the wrong Graphic Card? Or is there any setting to get the best performance with the graphic card and Premiere Pro (and after effects too)?

I just bought it and plugged it in the motherboard. I made a short configuration and the games look awesome but the edition in premiere pro and after are the slowest thing I've ever seen.

I'll really appreciate your help. (Sorry for my english, I hope you can understand)

Best regards to everyone.

In your case, it's a combination of several things:

1) Your system's CPU is too weak for the 4K 60 fps drone footage. And you're trying to compensate for the weakness of the CPU with a GPU that may be too overqualified for such a weakling CPU. In video editing using GPGPU-assisted technologies, both the CPU and the GPU get utilized quite a bit, unlike gaming which utilizes the GPU much more than the CPU. As a result, a balanced configuration between all of the major components is required for a video editing PC. Remember, no higher-end GPU can compensate for a weak CPU.

2) Your drive configuration is inadequate for video editing. 1TB WD Blacks have never had especially good sequential read or write speeds to begin with. And even the fastest single hard drive can only sustain about 230 MB/second in sequential reads and about 210 MB/second in sequential writes - tops. And since all NLEs decompress video for viewing on the fly, that 4K drone video will demand drive throughput that's far greater than any single HDD can mechanically handle. (That's right, HDDs mechanically cannot achieve the bandwidth that the SATA interface is theoretically capable of.)

3) 16GB of RAM is just pushing it for your source material. You need 32GB or more RAM for this - and there were motherboards for your CPU that could not handle more than 16GB due to the limitations of certain chipsets on such boards.

So, the only solution for your woes is an entirely new build with a higher-end, (relatively speaking) super-expensive CPU with at least 32GB of RAM, and then replace your system's HDD with one of those new m.2 PCIe SSDs (and keep the HDD for backup use). The GPU and the SATA SSD are the only components that can be carried over to the new build.

Thanks a lot for your answer.

I was wondering, with the system I have, what is your recommendation to get the best performance with adobe apps?

I reffer to, What hardware sould I buy or replace? or, is there any setting to change in my actual hardware?

I'll really appreciate your answer.

Best regards.

I would recommend going with the GTX 1050.  Newer generation is betterand it is overclocked (OC) but if you are using any 4K resolution media you might want more than 2GB of video RAM

But you may be putting to much faith in a GPU.  What effects are you using, are they GPU accelerated?  What is your hardware configuration?

    Hello Bill!

    I have a workstation z620 with 2 procesors 24gb ram etc.
