After effects working slowly

Question

Hello guys.I recently bought a new PC but my after effects is working quite slow, it takes a while to render the files. My system is: Processor: i7 - 6800K (3.60 GHz)Ram: 32 gb 4x8 DDR4 2666MHZGraphics card: EVGA GTX 1070MB: ASUS X-99 DeluxeWould anybody know what may be causing it to work slow? I thought some of the memory sticks might not be working but I don't think it's the cause... If somebody could give a help or let me know if I should improve my system please let me know. I am using it for a animation but I've done just 10 seconds so far. Thank you very muchVitor Hugo

All depends on how complicated (labor intensive) is your project. AE is a beast that can eat as much as you will give it to it, But please check:
- how much ram AE see your AE(edit/preferences/memory)\

- do you have any big images/photos used inyour project
- when you are rendering check how much ram/procesor is being used- do you use ray tracing for any 3D text/layers

- do you use any large not compressed video files (and for example have those files on the same hdd that you are rendering/exporting to)

- do you use add to render queue or add to AME render queue for rendering

And the most importtant question - what do you mean buy saying slow - i mean ... how complicated is your project and how much it takes to render?
