Question

optimum computer specs to run Premier Pro

We're purchasing a dedicated Windows computer to run Premiere Pro (and other Adobe Suite software).  What would be the optimum specs for a computer to run the software smoothly, balancing cost and functionality?  

 

We generate short (5-10 minute) instructional videos incorporating a lot of animation and effects.

Along with Neil's excellent suggestion, there is also the Hardware forum here.

    Strange, I can't upvote posts regularly? Nothing happens when I click the button.

      Go to the Puget Systems website, they have a TON of good articles on various computer parts and builds for running different video post applications.

       

      They also can advise you, and give a detailed listing of hardware bits to properly match your needs, whether you buy from them or not.
