Arikhan Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 As I plan to shoot and edit RAW (Canon) and "baked in" (Pana) 4K 50p in near future (max. 200 Mbps in FullHD ALL-Intra, 4K max 150 Mbps "baked in" MOV/MP4, max. 4K 50p in Canon's RAW Light), I will need for sure a new editing machine. I use Premiere & Davinci for editing. Windows only, no Apple. After looking at some options, I will probably build something like Max Yurev's proposal: My configuration idea (only the most important parts): AMD Ryzen 1700x, min. 32 GB RAM, 1. SSD for operating system and software (250GB), 2. drive = M.2 SSD (500GB cache/scratch), 3. drive SSD 1TB (data), Graphic card RX 580 Now my questions: as Max mentions in his video. 4K 25p works very nice - I would like to know, if 4K 50p editing / playback works without lags and frame drops too...(I am familiar with caching / proxy editing technique...) does RAW work really as good as claimed? Is someone out there using a similarly configured PC? Any proposals for proved and tested alternatives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I’m in the final stages of pulling the trigger on a Ryzen 5 1600X build. Not sure if you pulled the trigger but here are my proposed specs: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/itwinky/saved/vP3M8d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Not sure but my pc build got pushed back due to personal financial obligations but besides the pout- All the GTX 1060 6gb graphics cards are apparently in a drought as of today. Was looking online on the gpu tracker sites and the only ones in stock are ridiculously inflated at double the price. Not sure how we’re supposed to build video editing pcs with decent GPU’s when it’s tough to get a card at a decent price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was expecting that after the latest Intel CPUs... 1 hour ago, Dustin said: All the GTX 1060 6gb graphics cards are apparently in a drought as of today.

I had read a little about that intel/amd partnership. Sounds nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds nice! In my experience Premiere works better with CUDA than OpenCL but you can always use an NVIDIA eGPU (if you can select the GPU in the latest premiere that is). Unfortunately, we didn't see any laptops with the 6 core Coffee Lake-H, which would be optimal for Premiere. Dustin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decided to wait a few months to take care of some more pressing and current financial situations first. So peering laptop doesn’t die on me in the next few months, I’ll be doing this again around March/april! I just learned per Apple website they charge approx $199 for a battery replacement. Might do that and replace my heat sink diy in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxotics Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 You might look at this too. He did one for a high end PC, and one for $800 Dustin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
