Among the updates notes for Adobe Premiere Pro CC July 2018 (version 12.1.2) was a small note of “Performance improvements for decoding RED Camera Formats”. The question is, does this update dramatically increase performance if you work with RED footage or is it just a minor update that doesn’t actually affect most users?
AMD vs NVIDIA is typically a very hot topic for PC enthusiasts and we often get requests to compare AMD’s Radeon Vega video cards to their NVIDIA GeForce counterparts. Premiere Pro is able to take better advantage of the GPU than most other Adobe applications, but will AMD or NVIDIA give you more bang for your buck?
Depending on how you use Media Encoder, the GPU may or may not have a large impact on performance. If you use it primarily as a transcoding tool, it should be mostly CPU-bound – so is there any reason to use NVIDIA GeForce over AMD Radeon or vice versa?
We are often asked how AMD’s Radeon Vega video cards compare to their NVIDIA GeForce counterparts. Photoshop rarely benefits from having a powerful GPU, but there is still a measurable difference between these two brands of cards.
