I recently upgraded from my core 2 duo (specs in sig) for video editing work and it's not much faster, if at all!
I thought programs like Adobe Premiere made use of multiple cores? I'm exporting a 33 minute video which gave me a time estimate of around 3:30 hours and the CPU isn't exceeding 15% while the RAM is almost topping out. Funny that when I asked here about upgrading I was told more than 8GB of RAM is pointless and it seems to be the component always maxing out.
Any idea whats going on?
New specs:
MOBO - INTEL DZ68BC
CPU - INTEL CORE I7 2600K
MEM - CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600
SSD - Corsair Force Series GT 90GB SATA III
GPU - ATI HD4850
MONITOR - Asus PA246
