Photoshop Laggy and using all my 32gb ram and 600gb storage

[Calvin37218407usuj]

PhotoShop is super laggy on my pc, I have a 9650xt GPU (2022) ,  3900x Ryzen 9 12 Cores, 24 Thead, 32gb ram with 1tb ssd

These components should easy be able to run photoshop, Ive listed photos below showing what happens when photoshop is open vs when i close it down and you can see the massive difference, this pc is only 9months old aswell , can someone help me  figure out why my photoshop is super slow and laggy with all these higher end components.

@Calvin37218407usuj how large are the files you're working on.

[Calvin37218407usuj]

2500 height 2000width ive now changed it and its much much faster Thank you!!!! but the thing is back in the day not with this computer but a worse laptop, i use to use around 2000+ and there would be no problem its not like my pc cant handle that size

Sounds like you may have selected centimetres rather than pixels, a 2500 * 2000 cm document would be about 22 GB in size, so the second screenshot you provided would be correct for that size of document

That size (assuming we're talking about pixels, as Ged mentioned 😉 ) shouldn't be a problem. Even 4,000 or 5,000 pixels on the longer side shouldnt be a problem at all.

My laptop specs are much lower than yours and working on 6,000 px images is no problem at all.

I think "2500 height 2000width" gives it away 🙂  Wrong units, and a gigantic file as a result.

[MarekMularczyk]

I think you're right 😉
