    As imeilfx say's you need to have a ram preview to see in real time so you must to cache before playback,

    Anyway your RAM is not enough to run AE smoothly

    After Effects is not a realtime payback app and it can slow down (dependant on your workstation specs, footage and/or effects that you use) so you have ram preview. About that you should star here: Preview without rendering in After Effects 

    And as a beginner you should first try to learn some basics. AE is not the easiest piece of software and without basics can be hard to do anything.
    You will find some good basic tuts here: After Effects tutorials | Learn how to use After Effects CC
