Was unable to score above Mediocre in these benches. Performance in Premiere and After Effects is sluggish, inconsistent and poor for what I expected during the build process. This machine is getting trounced by a 9900K and the same amount of ram and same graphics card.

Purging cache, benching, and purging cache it appears the performance increased in rudimentary comps for after effects but the system has yet to be tested against an actual work related comp. Will update with more

Opening one of my most intense project files: 100 Instagram Stories Template Pack and applying a Red Giant Universe background effect to a solid layer caused AE to become not responsive and playback could not achieve realtime playback AE Crashed intense project file.png21802391 396 KB

A 1080 by 1080 comp with motion graphics assets loaded in from Toko Graphics Pack 3.0 (which is fantastic by the way) and audio tracks from Artlist.io (which is also fantastic).
[That link is my link from artlist]

This project is only 1 minute long and 1080 by 1080. I presumed a PC of my stature should be able to tackle this workload without breaking a sweat but I had to restart after effects at least 3 times and purge cache once.

Digging into the settings of AE there were a few levers inside the File> Project Settings which brings up a separate menu to dial in some parameters for your project. Mercury GPU Acceleration on.png1170941 260 KB

The other day I met the legend Andrew Cramer from videocopilot.net at a conference. We discussed performance issues with rendering engines and after effects. We arrived at a shared conclusion: diagnosing these issues is difficult, tedious and for some reason satisfying when you fix it.

With Maxon cinema 4D being integrated into after effects and illustrator it makes 3D easy to throw around and use in mixed media applications for a client or end user. Throw on redshift being bought by Maxon and there is little reason to use Octane. (this sparked a long exasperated declaration of frustration from my attempts of working with octane in the past).

This is the reason I wanted high core count and the most RAM I could Chuck into a box. I know that in my work I need to photo edit in Photoshop/Lightroom and edit in premiere/resolve while compositing in after effects, design graphics in illustrator, create proposals in InDesign and light 3D work in blender/element 3D/cinema 4D.
