    It's not so much DDR4 versus DDR3, but It's also the CPU architecture as well. I do not recommend the DDR3 build at all since it is of a now-outdated architecture that implements poorly several critical SSE4 features that Adobe makes heavy use of. That results in that FX 8350 BE, despite having 8 cores and 8 threads, performing as slow as or slower than a four-generation-old (Haswell) quad-core non-hyperthreadable (4-core/4-thread) Intel i5 CPU in CPU-only performance.

    As for the Ryzen 1200, it is more powerful itself than the FX 8350 BE. However, it is still weaker than a two-generation-old Skylake 4-core/8-thread i7 CPU.
