Ryzen 3900X vs 9900K for Adobe workflows Compare performance and suitability for Adobe applications.
Hey everyone, I'm gathering a list of components for a new PC tailored for video editing, photo editing, and gaming. I'll be running Adobe Premiere Pro, Lightroom, and Photoshop, with gaming set to 1440p. Regarding the CPU choice, should I go with the 3900X for extra cores or the 9900K for better Intel QuickSync performance in Adobe software?
Quicksync is incredibly powerful; achieving victory requires a massive 3950X advantage over 9900k, meaning 9900k is the optimal path.
I'm not aware of specific benchmarks highlighting Intel's advantages, though many focus on AMD's performance in multi-core scenarios. Your preference for AMD's extra cores is understandable.
This article discusses the performance of AMD Ryzen 9 3950X CPU using AMD's AMD Ryzen Pro CPUs.
Ensure you're working in H.264 format. For h.265 projects, consider using AMD's approach.
Hello everyone! Photoshop is relatively light on resources—mainly Lightroom. I shoot with a Sony A6500, so future footage will likely be H.264. There’s some GoPro content in H.265, but less of it. I’m not sure why I’m focused on the 3900X; probably because core counts matter and my assumption that it’ll outperform the 9900K in four years is a bit blind.
