Adobe Premiere Pro CPU SHOWDOWN - How Many CORES Do You NEED?

2016-04-15
look what you guys have gonna maybe do now all this hardware you know what I'm loving it welcome back to tech yes city this is brian coming to you guys today with a cpu showdown in Premiere Pro now in the next coming days I'm also going to be doing a GPU showdown with OpenCL vs. CUDA so stay tuned for that though let's quickly get on to the contestants and then the benchmarks first up here we have the 6600 K this is the four core consumer variant with only four threads available I managed to get this thing up to 4.6 gigahertz the next CPU we have up here is the 3930k which is six core 12 threaded beasts this thing I got this to 4.4 swagga Hertz then next up here we have my dual a 526 70s which combine to make Captain Planet I'm just kidding they actually make 16 calls 32 threads at 3 gigahertz and then last up here we have the e 526 58 this was an engineering sample I picked up off eBay for $300 I got this thing to 2.6 key goods on all of those 12 cores and 24 threads now looking at the results here we can see that all these CPUs pretty much scored in the same league with no one having a massive victory over the other it was actually ironic that my 32 threads Joule Xeon CPU scored the worst times when it came to the GTX 970 having cooter enabled now without cooter enabled the render times literally went up to like 6 hours so you will definitely want to have open seal or cooter enabled if you're editing in a 4k video workspace now this time around I did do a normal video that I would edit for you guys in a 4k workspace to an GTX 780 video which has adjustment layers it's got colors and all that jazz put in there and so will these benchmarks will be indicative of someone just getting camera footage off their camera dropping it into Premiere Pro and then also editing and adjusting the layers and adding things in though I will point out though I found when I was using my four core especially when I had the mp4 footage in that workflow area there I found that it really was struggling at certain intervals as opposed to all the other CPUs that I tested here they were all fine in the workflow process so also the final render times the four core was just getting taxed completely to the max in other words I couldn't do anything else in that final render time as opposed to my jewels eons where I'd be listening to music talking on skype and also editing a thumbnail out for the video that I'm currently rendering also lastly I will say Adobe you guys need to update your website with some proper recommendations on the specs I really couldn't find anything other than just a dual core and four gigabytes of memory for the requirements you guys really should have an optimization guy going on especially for a service where people are paying $50 a month and also I will say that I'm sorry I made a mistake in my previous showcase video where I actually hit the match source button and that allowed my results to be pretty much inaccurate so I'm sorry about that however this time around the results are really apples to apples and if I do these benchmarks again in the future I'm definitely going to do it with a can temporary workflows sort of project for you guys to give you accurate results anyway guys if you have any questions or comments about this video be sure to drop a comment the conversation below and I'll get back to you as soon as I can and I'll be getting on to some other benchmarks really soon for you guys to stay tuned for that and peace out for now bye
