    For Adobe Premiere CC, whether you're using macOS or Windows 10, you absolutely need 16GB of RAM and 4GB of GPU VRAM (this is RAM specific to graphics, whether you're gaming or editing film files). However, Adobe recommends that you have 32GB of RAM.

    Does Premiere use a lot of RAM? ›

    While the exact amount of RAM you need is going to depend on the length, codec, and complexity of your project, for Premiere Pro we generally recommend a minimum of 32GB. Memory usage in Premiere Pro can quickly shoot up, however, so it is important that you ensure you have enough system RAM available.

    Unless you're planning to do only very low-end video editing, you'll want a laptop with a graphics card. For technical reasons, systems for even mid-level editing offload graphics processing from the CPU to a graphics card with a GPU (graphics processing unit).
