After Effects CC 2018: AMD Threadripper 2990WX & 2950X Performance
For several years, After Effects has not performed very well with high core count CPUs – instead favoring processors that have higher per-core performance. This means that while AMD’s new Threadripper CPUs like the 2990WX and 2950X are very impressive in some applications, they shouldn’t be terribly great for After Effects compared to their Intel counterparts.

Premiere Pro CC 2018: NVIDIA GeForce vs AMD Radeon Vega
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?
Media Encoder CC 2018 Transcoding: NVIDIA GeForce vs AMD Radeon Vega
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?
Photoshop CC 2018 NVIDIA GeForce vs AMD Radeon Vega
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.
