AE needs at least 8GB of RAM, but Windows easily takes 4GB, too. With a total of 8 GB, freezes are no wonder.

Upgrading the RAM is a good idea here. You can combine 16+8, but having identical RAM latches in use is always more adviseable.

thank you for reply.

Is 8gb + 8gb ok, too?

Than i buy a m2 ssd with 128gb for user folder ?

Or better go with 16gb +8gb?

Thank you

Get the exact same ram module - you can read the part number with cpu-z or other tools like this - so you minimize the risk of compatibility issues.

For serious AE work, 32GB Ram is better, tough.
