Sam,

 

I had previously warned other users about mismatching the relative performance of the GPU with regards to that of the CPU. Many of the users that I responded to - and I am currently guilty of that myself - combined a relatively powerful CPU with a relative weakling of a GPU. Your system is clearly the opposite: That GPU is clearly overqualified for the CPU that you're using. Premiere Pro really works best when the relative performances of both the CPU and the GPU are closely matched. However, that RTX 2080 Ti significantly outperforms that i7-9700K, making that build just a waste of money as configured.

 

Still, that does not explain the fact that Premiere Pro itself could have been better-engineered than the half-baked agglomeration that it currently is.

I'm having the same issues, very very frustrating. It makes editing practically impossible. I have a new system: Ryzen 9 3900x, RTX 2070 Super FE, 32GB RAM, all drivers and Windows are up to date. I work with Sony footage (A7sii/A7iii) in 1080p and 4k in various frame rates. I work in PP20. I need a proper fix!

Hi shanesmane,

 

We're sorry about this. We would need more info to troubleshoot the issue properly. Please provide the system specifications (OS, CPU, GPU and RAM). Also, let us know the type of media files that you are working with (format/codec, frame rate and frame size) and the effects applied. We're here to help, just need more info.

 

Thanks,

Sumeet

I am having the same lag issues with the new PP 2020 version on a Windows 10, Xeon ES-1620, 16GB RAM, QUADRO K2000 with a project of 1920x1080 30 FPS MPEG4 clips. Occasionally it is so bad that the mouse pointer freezes on the desktop for 15 seconds. In addition to lag issues, the footage displayed in the program monitor occasionally disparears. I have to shut down PP and restart in order to see anything in that monitor.

I'm having same problems including the freezing mouse, but not the footage disappearing from the program monitor.

I am also having this issue. After updating 2020 is completely unusable for me. i7-9700k, 32GB RAM, 2080 Ti. Latest version of both windows and NVIDIA drivers. I've also completely uninstalled and then reinstalled. I've even gone as far as using the CC cleaner tool to completely remove everything from my system.

Damn dude this sucks! Somehow my 2019 version is still on my computer and i can edit out of it and everything works so if you can still get in 2019 version then you should be good
