Premiere Elements with AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and GTX 1660

Question

I was wondering if anyone has experience with running Premiere Elements on a PC using AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and GTX 1660? I built the computer for my Grandson to edit videos for his Youtube channel. I wanted to ease him into video editing and thought Premiere Elements would be a nice place to start. However, I noticed that the processor and GPU that I chose are not listed on the supported components for P.E. Since I already built the computer, do I need to consider another editing software?

I personally use Premiere Pro so I figured I would stand a better chance at helping him with his projects if he was using Premiere Elements.

Thank you, Gary

You absolutely do not need GPU support with Premiere Elements. It was introduced in the newest version and all previous versions have succeeded well without GPU support. In addition it is limited to helping timeline previews. If project settings match media being used that's not an issue. It does nothing to speed output rendering.

Premiere Elements is available as a free trial. I encourage to to test it on your computer. The trial is exactly the same as the real version except that it puts a banner watermark in the video. It should run well.
