Find out if your computer is compatible with Premiere Pro CC. You'll learn Adobe's minimum system requirements and what the pros recommend in 2020.
Depending on the type of footage you work with, the hardware requirements for Premiere Pro can range from a fairly moderate system, to an incredibly powerful one. In this post, we will go over a few of our recommendations for the best PC for Adobe Premiere Pro for a range of budgets.
Below, you'll find Adobe's Official Premiere Pro System Requirements. There's a more detailed list on their website, alongside the system requirements for VR, hardware acceleration, and the recommended AMD and NVIDIA GPUs. Here are the official minimum and recommended system requirements for Premiere Pro 12.1.12 (July 2018 release).
Premiere Pro and After Effects are engineered to take advantage of the GPU. Premiere Pro: We recommend a GPU with at least 4GB of memory (VRAM). Multiple GPUs, including eGPUs, will speed up export and rendering in Premiere Pro. After Effects 22.0 or later: We recommend a GPU with at least 8GB of VRAM.
Yeah you're going to have a bad time if you use Premiere on a computer with either the min or recommended specs above. Specs def matter and are more dependent on your shooting material. You'd be lucky to edit something SD in the above spec sheet, let alone HD or 4K.
