Hi I bought a dell 5593 notebook with i7, 8 ram, 256g ssd and nvidia mx 230 gpu, I have trouble editing because my laptop overheats and starts to crash. I tried to disable the gpu, change to the older version that allows creative cloud and it doesn't work. What I can do? Is there any other version of premiere pro cc that can work with this gpu?

    None that is currently (and legitimately) available, sad to say. Your laptop now no longer meets minimum performance requirements to run any newer version of Premiere Pro at all. Adobe has become an increasingly elitist company when it comes to minimum hardware requirements to run its higher-level software programs.

    this is very sad, my laptop is new and does not work for me! Do I have any possible solution?

    The thing is specifications. That MX230 is, if anything, worse than even a desktop GT 1030 even though both GPUs are based on the same bottom-of-the-barrel (by current Nvidia standards) GP108 chip that does not have a hardware encoder at all. And the MX230 is a gimped GT 1030 with even its hardware decoder disabled during manufacture, not to mention that it has only 256 CUDA cores rather than the 384 CUDA cores of the full-blown GT 1030.

     

    So yes, it's the graphics hardware that's deficient in that laptop. It is, in fact, one of the discrete Nvidia GPUs that suck (relatively speaking): It is not sufficiently better than integrated Intel UHD Graphics to justify paying any extra for.
