Performance Issues

Ive got my footage on an NVME SSD, Ryzen 7 1700x, 32 GB of Ram and a 3060 TI. It is really exhausting to work on Projects that are longer than 15 Minutes because Premiere Pro starts lagging as hell. Ripple deleting takes a lot of time and juggling clips between multiple squences also makes you wait because of a delay when switching between them.
I was wondering if any of these performance Issues will disappear with the best CPU and GPU aswell as slightly faster RAM.

    From Premiere Pro User Guide > Hardware and operating system requirements > Hardware recommendations for Premiere Pro and After Effects

     

    Upgrade Premiere Pro system in this order of priority:

    1. Add more RAM – up to 128GB if the motherboard supports it (especially for long-form content) 
    2. A faster GPU – or additional GPUs for faster export and rendering with Premiere Pro
    3. For storage: Faster (or additional) SSD or NVMe drives
    4. CPU with a faster clock speed

    So, increase your RAM.  Also, use a format that is good for video editing (like ProRes 422 LT) with storage media with sufficient capacity and speed.

    Delete the Media Cache and Media Cache files:

    If that doesn't work, try creating a new project and import the old one into it.

    Have you tried proxies?

    I have used Proxies before but I dont remember if they fixed the mentioned issues. The Raw Footage is 125 GB and the last time I used a proxy it turned a 8GB file into a 50GB file and I dont think I can give up 1/4th of my nvme ssd while working on such a project.

    I think you need a larger SSD.  Is it only 256GB?
