PC Spec okay for Premiere?

I can't believe everyone is telling you that a 6 core processor with an M.2 drive, a 7200RPM hard drive, and a GTX 1060 isn't sufficient for editing. That's absolutely rediculous and not based in fact. 

Your system will be entirely sufficient for editing HD video with that setup. Your crashes are probably a result of driver or configuration issues. If you wanted to edit 4k, just upgrade the RAM to 32GB. Don't expect to do real time RAW debayering, but mirrorless camera footage should be fine. You've got plenty of hard drive space to make proxies I hope? 

I have an i7 with 6 physical cores and 12 hyper threading virtual cores, and 32Gig of ram

I have "acceptable" performance with 1920x1080 24fps and 1280x720 30fps video from my Canon SX510

I don't have, and would not attempt to try and edit 4k video

My personal opinion is that an i5 with 16Gig is BARELY enough to edit high definition video

Don't expect much out of that PC, as currently configured:

Despite the i5-8400's six cores, it lacks hyperthreading. Therefore, its CPU performance is merely competitive with a previous-gen (Kaby Lake) quad-core i7 with hyperthreading. Why settle for that level of performance when video resolutions become higher and higher and encoding codecs become much more complex?

Second, no 1 TB HDD, even at 7200 RPM, can ever attain a sustainable transfer speed (throughput) of even 200 MB/s, let alone the 500 MB/s that a good SATA SSD regularly achieves. And it feels worse than that because all NLEs, Premiere Pro included, decompress display video on the fly, which can severely impact editing performance (not editing quality), especially as more and more effects are applied.

I find the cpu so so (needs to be an i7) and and a spinning drive............

It could use more RAM and a better processor, depending upon the media you're editing.

Have you tried proxies?

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:

Reset a workspace

Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.

1. Do one of the following:
   • Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout. 
   • Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.

If that doesn’t work ,try updating or rolling back your graphics driver directly from the video card manufacturer’s site.

Specs look fine, what version of Windows are you running? What Nvidia driver version? Do you have the Intel GPU enabled? What media are you editing? When does it crash? 

Thanks, I've checked them but I'm specifically wondering if anybody has experience with PC setups and what they think of my current build

Might want to read this first before ordering the parts.
