After Effects will definitely make use of the RAM for caching, which will use the slower SSD
otherwise. I'd consider 32GB to be bare minimum for a workstation, think 64 will be very worthwhile.That's a lot of PC for the money, but for video work you're gonna need more storage space unless you're working from a server? Easy enough to add those yourself tho'.
Part 57 of my continued dithering over buying a new video editing PC (for Premiere, After Effects, etc)... Have considered upping my budget a bit. Would something like the attached system make sense? Should I go for a cheaper graphics card on the basis that I could update it in a year or two when things get cheaper? Should I just go for 32mb RAM? I really am out of touch with what is good or bad in modern computers - I just want something that won't be slowing me down & hopefully free me up to concentrate on being creative.
