Hey guys, I'm an artist with little technical wherewithal. I'm just learning now. My footage and edits look good but now wanna learn big boy tools. Will I be able to easily use it on my HP 15Z?? I just listened to the sales person but realize that may have been a mistake. I'm willing to do what I need to to save money but still be able to use PP. I'll only use the laptop for video editing and that's it. Right now I'm just using footage from my S9+ but will eventually upgrade. I just wanna be able to learn all the tools I can. Would love some specific help!

    What are the complete hardware specs of your 15z? Which CPU? Which storage? Which display? How much RAM?

      It does not meet minimum hardware requirements for Premiere Pro, especially in the display resolution. Premiere Pro requires a 1280 x 800 display - but the 1366 x 768 display does not meet that minimum requirement. The smaller dimension is only 768 pixels - below the 800 that's required. As a result, some of the critical portions of the Premiere Pro interface will become permanently inaccessable. In the worst cases, you may not be able to do any exporting at all whatsoever because you cannot access the part of the window where the critical buttons are located.

       

      As a result, the only way that you can run Premiere Pro properly would be to connect an external HDMI monitor to that laptop - but then, that completely defeats the primary purpose of a laptop to begin with. And this situation will only become worse: Future versions of Premiere Pro will require a Full HD (1920 x 1080) monitor to even run at all.
