Ryzen 5 3550H AMD/SSD 512 Go/RAM 8 Go/GeForce GTX 1650

Those are the speck of the computer that i'm thinking about buying, however i'm not sure if it's good enough for running most of the creative cloud softwares. 

I know that it's not perfect but i don't have a really big budget. 
Can anyone help me please?

System requirements vary quite a bit.  Please ensure your computer meets or exceeds the minimum system requirements to run your OS + Creative Cloud + all other apps you intend to use.   Be sure to check each one.  Keep in mind these are bare min specs.  You may need more depending on workflow, filters, filesize, etc...

If you're dollar conscious, you get a lot more bang for your buck with a good Windows Workstation.  And I highly recommend 16GB+ of RAM if you can afford it.  Creating digital content eats up a lot of memory both physical and virtual.

I have an Asus TUF FX505 laptop (same specs as yours) which I bought a few months ago as a secondary device to my main PC (Ryzen 3600, 32GB Ram, GTX 1660).

 

It's not a bad little machine, and will probably ok unless you want to do some really heavy video editing/after effects work and open huge files in Photoshop. I would definately upgrade the RAM to at least 16GB if you can, I did and it made a huge difference.

 

The other good thing about it is you can set some apps to use the integrated GPU (Vega 😎 rather than the GTX 1650 to get better battery life.
