    Correct answer RoninEdits

    cpu; i5 4470

    ram ; 8gb (1 stick)

    gpu: r9 280x


    try disabling the intel graphics, sometimes it conflicts with the amd video card when premiere is looking for a video card to use.

    RoninEdits has a good suggestion. If you run GPUSniffer at the command prompt window, and you find both the AMD GPU and the integrated Intel IGP listed and enabled, you should see an error message "Not chosen because of initialization failure." That would have forced Premiere Pro to render in software-only mode.

    I have tested an R9-280X and it works see my test results here.  Try Ronin's suggestion.

    What are the specs of your computer?

    You have a weakling CPU and a both too little and too-low-throughput memory subsystem. With only one stick of RAM, you're doing only single channel. You cannot get dual-channel out of only one stick of RAM; it's completely impossible.

    Also, you did not specify any disk(s) that are installed, and any disks that are connected.

    By the way, the i5-4470 does not exist. Did you mean an i5-4460? I5-4570? I5-4670?
