Video Hardware

i recently just got a e5 2650 2.5ghz 8-16 cpu wanting to render with that cpu but adobe media renderes slow than my i7 2600 with the same setting which is really werid because i though adobe program would be able to use them core for make render alot faster if could shine light on this i would love to hear because im pulling my hair about this

Hi,I'm trying to arrange the set up of a new system at work for video editing (plus some After Effects animating). I just want to double check the specs that have been suggested. At a previous company I had a lot of lag watching video stored externally (via a USB 3 connected hard drive). Will the SSD used to store all videos files be fast enough connecting through the Thunderbolt port (USB-C) to watch in real time? On occasion I'll be applying effects or animating in After Effects and will need to view RAM previews too in real time. Or will I need to work off the internal SSD and move data across once finished (not my preference)?These are the specs:iMac 27"CPU: 7th Gen i7 4 core 4.2-4.5Ghz                                          RAM: 32GB 2400MHz DDR4     &n

Hello,I need a new laptop for videoediting on Adobe Premiere Pro. My main requirement is that the software would run smoothly for the next couple of years at least - a little bit slower renderring times or so do not play such a big role for me. I had to return Dell XPS 15 9560, because it was facing a really annoying playback issue when used with NVIDIA Geforce 1050 - according to Adobe itself, Nvidia Geforce 1050 is not working well with the software at this right moment. Right now I am looking for a different option, but before spending so much money I would appreciate anybody's experience which system would be most stable (or which GPU would be most compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro):-Lenovo Thinkpad P51 - Intel Core i7-7700HQ, 15.6" FHD (1920x1080), 16GB DDR4 2400MHz SODIMM, 512GB SSD PCIe, NVIDIA Quadro M1200M 4GB GDDR5-Apple Macbook Pro 15" (2015) - 2.8GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, Turbo Boost up to 4.0GHz, 16GB of 1600MHz memory, 512GB SSD, Intel Iris Pro Graphics-Appl

I just don't get it. PRP 2014 was butter smooth even on my older machines.

I've been exporting series of 18 files at 720x480 resolution that are around 40 minutes long each, in Adobe Encoder, and it has taken over 24 hours.The Task Manager shows that there is on average, 3% CPU utilization. Occasionally it will spike up to 90%, but usually stays around 2-3%.My computer has an AMD FX 4300 processor, 8GB RAM, and a GeForce GT 430 GPU.The option to use the graphics rendering was greyed out, but my edits are simply encoding from mpeg to mp4 and m2v (see pictures below) I didn't use any color correction or any other "special effects" only cutting and rearranging clips, so I don't think the GPU would be used anyways for this kind of encoding. As a possibly related note, I haven't been able to find my graphics card in device manager, and so even though everything shows up fine on the monitor, it may be possible that it's not fully functional, though again, I don't think that should matter for this kind of encoding. Thanks for any help on this matter.

Hi, Thanks for your help- I recently build my new pc. -Intel 8700K-32gb DDR4 Ram-Nvidia 1060 SC 6Gb-Windows 10 HomeI installed Premiere Pro 2018, but after few days, I started to get the blue screen, every time I opened a project. Sometimes was the blue screen (error names listed bellow), and sometimes it just freeze all. Errors:PAGE_FAULT_IN _NONPAGED_AREASYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTIONDPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATIONetc.I updated Nvidia drivers... I updated the Display drivers.... but nothing changed- I hope you can help me. Thansk again.O.

I need some urgent advice please.I have just bought the Dell XPS all-in-one which I assumed would be good enough for 1080 and occasional 4K editing?XPS 27 7760 All-in-One, Intel Core i7-7700 3.6GHz, 32GB RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD, 27" 3840x2160 4K UHD Touchscreen, 8GB AMD Radeon RX 570However my heart as sunk as it seems to freeze playback after adding only three or so layers of footage. I have even created proxies but this hasn't helped either. Is there something wrong with the spec as all reviews of these processors, amount of RAM etc seemed to indicate that it would be quite good for editing, where in fact it is unusable.It is even underperforming the 2012 Macbook Pro (non retina 13") that I am replacing. I was going to go for a laptop but assumed this would have better cooling etc, and the screen is rather lovely - but pointless if it doesn't even do the basics in Premiere.I have disabled the onboard graphics card so the GPU is definately using Open CL. Is the fact that it isn't Nvidia suc

What is The Best set up for Premiere Pro 2018?I have a Quadro M4000 Nvidia card, Driver 390.77, and it crashes every day about 10 times. Its reaction is slow and its playback can stall at times and I have to restart premiere all the time. Can anyone tell me why?

Me and a friend have been asked to make a parts list for a 4k video editing PC to be used by the school. We have been given a budget of £1500 and have used our limited knowledge of computers to gather parts for it. The school will be primarily running premier pro and therefor the system should be optimised for it. It is likely that we will be doing some light overclocking. All the footage will be stored on external hard drives so the ssd is only needed for the OS and programs as well as the current project. Our list so far is:Ryzen 7 1800xBe quiet Dark Rock Pro cpu coolerMSI X370 gaming pro carbonCorsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3000 -ether 16 or 32GBSamsung 960 evo m.2 250gb ssdGTX 1070Corsair 650W PSUDoes anyone recommend any part changes to increase the performance without going over the budget as we are already right on the limit.[Moderator note: moved to best forum.]

I am a PC user (Dell 27 in all in one) but i’ve Decided to soon get a Mac for mainly running LR and PS....my question is what would you recomment for memory, processor, graphics card etc.  my budget is give or take, $3K.thank yousal

My current PC has an i7-4790 CPU and 32gb RAM. The graphics card is a 2Gb GeForce GT730. It does ok with HD footage but I am working on a 4k UHD project and even with proxies at times the playback stutters.The Bottlenecker website identified that my GPU is very underpowered for my CPU and causing a 100% bottleneck! Would upgrading the GPU assist with timeline playback? I have read that Premiere Pro mainly used the GPU acceleration for rendering so I am unsure whether it would affect timeline playback.The Bottlenecker suggested a GeForce GTX 780 Ti as best suited for my configuration but that appears to be an older card and not available new. It is also only available with 3Gb and if I was replacing my GPU I want at least 4Gb for use with Davinci Resolve for colour grading.Would a GTX 1050Ti help my system?Also I am still currently running Windows 7 - would an upgrade to Windows 10 make any difference?Thanks!

Looking for a media server option, meaning a network lan-connected device available 24/7. Primary use is for whole house recording and playback of media (audio only, video, still photos), but also backup etc. Many options look expensive. Any hints on how to evaluate options?

Hello,looking to get the gtx 1060 6gb version for my Premiere editing and with so many different versions out, I wanted to ask which one should I get?  Will the single fan vs. 2 or 3 make a difference?  Is there a performance or quality difference between them based on who made them (EVGA, MSI, ASUS etc)?Any and all opinions welcomed.  ThanksJaySpecs:3930kP9x79 Pro850 Pro - 512gb, 256gb, 128gbWD Caviar Black 1tb x2GTX 650 TI Boost

Hi.I'm pretty new to video editing. My current system is i7-5820K, 16 gigs of RAM, GTX 960 2 GB. I'm thinking of getting a Samsung 960 Pro 512 GB nvme drive for my system/project files, Samsung 840 EVO 120 GB for scratch disk, and a WD Black 1 TB for media, aaand 4 TB Red for other stuff. I'm also thinking of adding 16 gigs of additional RAM. I will be working with full hd footage for TV.Any possible bottle-necking? Thanks!

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this - just hoping to get advice.I have been editing with Premiere for 6 years, and I love this software. What I don't love is the computer I am using to edit. It is now 6 years old - a Dell XPS 9100, I7 CPU 930, 2.80 Ghz, 4 cores.Whenever I work on any type of type of sequence in PP especially drone footage, and 4K, it constantly lags, gets held up in the timeline and quite frankly takes forever to render clips and export sequences. I can hear the computer get real loud as it tries to scrub a shot or during export. Also, whenever I add effects to a clips and then try to play the clip, it always gets stuck. I have to assume the processor is just too old. Then again, its an i7 so I am not sure.in 2 months, I plan on buying a new computer and monitor. I surely could use some suggestions on what to buy.First off I am a PC guy, so no MAC. I need a system that is under $1500 and will be a major improvement from what I have. Any suggestions on co

I have a Philips BDM4065UC which is faulty, and Philips is offering to replace with either a BDM4350UC or BDM4037UW.My primary use is Premiere and graphics After Effects on a Mac, so good color is important, and so is legible small text at 4K (like in the Adobe panels.) Text looks pretty cruddy on my 4065 (with and without font smoothing).I think I would like the 4037 curved display because stuff on the left/right edges, like Adobe panels, at my viewing distance, often feels skewed because of the size of the screen. Like I have to move my head to read text comfortably at the edges (where all the panels are.) This would be even more pronounced with a 43" screen, right? Does anyone here use a curved 40" screen?Also there are reports of bad responsiveness with the 4037 ... i.e., high "perceived blur" with motion.However the 4350 is IPS, as opposed to VA for the other two. In the past I remember reading IPS is better ... but I see people mentioning "glow"? Is IPS better for editing/motion

What is the RPM size of Flash,SSD,SATA,SAS drives?

Hello, I have am looking into purchasing a laptop for editing and wondering what my hard drive setup should be. I am looking into purchasing an external SSD usb c drive and wondering if I can fit both my scratch files such as render previews etc as well as my projects and media or if I need another drive for that? the laptops I'm looking into have 1 USBC/Thunderbolt port and up to three usb 3.0 ports. I'm not too sure how fast usb 3.0 really is and if that can efficiently playback render files. I'm used to a PC with all my drives plugged in internally.
