[DominikDAMN]

Hello,

I have 4K videos ( 4K 50fps - 442) on the same SSD 970 PRO 512 like premier pro cc.

I have this hardware:

- MB - Asus WS X299 PRO_SE

- i9-7940X CPU @ 3.10GHz, 3096 MHz

- 8x Kingston KHX2666C13/16GX 16GB

- GeForce RTX 2080

Any sugestions, why, i have enabled GPU in PP, what to do

Have you tried proxies?

You need at least 64gig of ram for 4K editing.

Hi Ann,

I think OP has - 8x Kingston KHX2666C13/16GX 16GB = 128 GB.

[Ann Bens]

Aha.

You don't need 64 GB to edit 4K R3D, Pro Res, BRAW and H.264.

I have 128gb ram, if i have big project 1080p, like 30min with some overlays i must have video quality to 1/8 to looks smootly 😕

[Andy 1968]

I would update the video driver. Depending on the audio hardware an ASIO driver might help.

I have the latest allways, 457.30

Do you only have one SSD and if yes, how much free space does it have? When a drive has less that 10% free space they become slow, very slow. 50fps is very demanding as well but your machine should handle 1080p25 and 1080p50 without problems.

So...

• Do you only have one SSD and if yes, how much free space does it have?
• Have you used any benchmark application that measures the speed of your SSD to see that it performs as expected and what results did you get?
• From what camera/s does the footage come from?
• What are the specificatrions of the footage, AVCHD or Blackmagic Design RAW, or?
• What effects do you use, Levels or everything in Red Giant Complete?
• Has it ever worked smoothly?

- i have 2 SSD 512 EVO 970 and one 3TB HDD, premiere and fotages are on the same for temporary projekts it is almost half full.

- no i didnt

- from FS5-shooted on Inferno and from a7siii

- AVCHD yes

- sometimes some tekst and graphic s overlays sometime some other effects

- 1080p allways like half year ago, with updates everything going slowly i think

Your 3TB hdd is not suited for editing just for backup.

Answer: Keep Windows and applications including Premiere Pro on one disk and don´t use a system disk as a scratch disk. Don´t use the 3TB HDD as a scratch disk either. Make sure to don´t have the Media Cache and Media Cache Database on the system drive. Place them on the other M.2 SSD. (Edit > Preferences > Media Cache)

no i didnt

Answer: Do it: AJA System Test

from FS5-shooted on Inferno and from a7siii

AVCHD yes

Answer: Are you really sure, do you use an FS5 connected to an Inferno and an Sony A7S III only to get AVCHD? That can´t be correct.

sometimes some tekst and graphic s overlays sometime some other effects

Answer: Does it behave as bad without text/graphic overlays and some other (unknown) effects?

1080p allways like half year ago, with updates everything going slowly i think

Answer: Each update can behave oddly and it is a good practice to always reset the Preferences and manually clean the Media Cache and Media Cache Database before opening the new version.
