CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-2400 (up to 3.4 Ghz)

GPU: Geforce 1030 Gb 2GB

Ram : 4 GB (upgradable to 8gb)

I'm looking for new PC to buy, I want to use premiere pro (any older version of cc) for some basic edits like color grading, color corection, green screen, etc... Do this PC is compatible for this??

Honestly, I would not recommend buying it at all: As with anything cheap or low-end or (in the case of that CPU platform) over seven years old, you'd only be wasting money. That i5-2400 is actually about as slow as a recent dual-core i3 CPU when I last tested it in the MPEG-2 DVD software-only export test, while the GT 1030 may be a lousy DDR4 version that's practically unusable for GPU-accelerated CUDA tasks (and yes, there are GT 1030s with inferior DDR4 RAM in addition to those with GDDR5 RAM).

You’ll really want a minimum of 16GB RAM. i think that the CPU would be okay and the GPU would be okay. Its also very important to have two SSDs, one for O/S and Applications and one for everything else. If it comes with a 1 TB HDD, that’s fine for long term storage, but make sure you can add additional disk drives.
