Serious issue with Adobe Premiere Pro after upgrading my GPU.

I’m having a serious issue with Adobe Premiere Pro after upgrading my GPU.

My setup:

MSI B450 Pro motherboard

Ryzen 7 5800XT processor

64GB DDR4 RAM

1TB NVMe SSD

Previously using an RTX 2060 Super (everything worked fine)

I recently upgraded to an RTX 5060 to stay up to date and improve my workflow. Unfortunately, it’s been the worst decision so far. Since switching GPUs, Premiere Pro has become almost unusable: I experience playback issues, dropped frames, export problems, and even playing a simple 4K iPhone video has turned into a nightmare.

Things I have already tried (please don’t suggest these again):

Complete reinstall of Adobe Premiere Pro

Clearing cache

Updating drivers

Making sure Premiere Pro is set to use the GPU in the NVIDIA Control Panel

System restart / power cycle

At this point, it feels like Premiere Pro and the RTX 5060 are simply incompatible.

    Hi @Miguel5C13 ,

    Look at this problem and see if it sounds like it aligns with the issue you are currently facing, hardware-encoding-nvidia-rtx-5070 .

    it's along shot, but you can try a bios update?

    The 50 series Nvidia cards have been a nightmare across all the pro video apps. I use and teach both Premiere and Resolve, and there's been issues with both apps. As there are in others.

     

    Some users were able to find a specific driver that works, most can't.

     

    Another user just posted that they received the replacement for their RMA'd 5090, and the replacement just works as expected.

     

    It may well be a problem with the cards.

    Everyone's mileage always varies ...

    Maybe check with RTX Tech Support to see if they have suggestions or know of conflicts.
