Personally, I wish I had 64GB for Adobe Premiere. I had 16GB for the better part of a year and it constantly went to the storage drive when working projects. Now I have 32GB and it does that "Much" less. Editing mostly 1080P RAW from an Atomos Ninja SSD recorder, file sizes are in the few GB range each so the math is easy, the more RAM the better.

Ok, but 32Gb, will that work for both r7 1700x or intel 5820k
AND, what will happend if premier pro uses the storage drive?
Thank you for answering
Hello,
32gb is likely fine for most, i work in high bitrate RAW alot and file sizes are enourmous compared to 4k footage from something like a GH4 or any commercial drone etc. 225mb for every second of footage adds up quick. But i digress, what happens when Premire Pro is forced to use the disk? Well, even with fast SSD storage when you run out of system memory your video runs the chance of stuttering and not being smooth while playing back, and applying effects and transitions can take much longer etc. If all the video you are working on resides in system memory the whole process of editing is much smoother and faster. Also you may have other programs open as well, such as Photoshop, a web browser etc and you might also be compiling footage into a finished product in the background as you work on edits. Long story short, when editing video, more ram is always better but that being said 32gb as i said earlier is likely fine for most people. My needs for an enthusiast are the exception because of the specific formats i work in.
As to working with a 5820k, sure thing, that is the chip i use in my workstation. I have no experience with the new AMD chips as they are brand new and personally i havent read a ton about them, but from what i have read they seem like boiled down server/workstation chips and the few benchmarks i have seen showed them doing very well with workstation apps, but i hadent seen any benchmarks pertaining to creative cloud apps yet? Best advice is to get online and read read read l, especially considering how new to market they are.
Hope this helps,
Tim
