Performance That Keeps Up With Your Creativity

Post-production pushes every part of a system — from CPU threads and GPU compute to memory bandwidth and storage I/O. Whether you’re cutting multicam timelines, layering motion graphics, compositing CG, or exporting masters, our workstations are engineered for sustained speed and uptime. Fewer bottlenecks means more real-time playback, faster previews, and shorter renders — so you spend more time editing and less time waiting.

Processor: Timeline Responsiveness & Export Speed

The CPU drives timeline fluidity, effect stacks, and encode performance. Different apps lean on it differently:

• Premiere Pro: Balanced high clocks + cores for snappy edits and fast exports.
• After Effects: High single-thread speed and ample RAM bandwidth for previews.
• DaVinci Resolve & Nuke: Benefit from more cores during heavy compositing and caching.

Recommended tiers: Intel Core Ultra 285K or AMD Ryzen 9 9950X for advanced editing/VFX; scale to Threadripper PRO when extreme parallelism or multi-GPU pipelines are required.

Graphics: Real-Time Playback, Grading & Effects

Modern NLEs and finishing apps accelerate color, transitions, denoise, and many effects on the GPU. Resolve, in particular, scales impressively with GPU power.

• NVIDIA RTX 5090 / RTX 5000 Ada: Top-tier compute with next-gen NVENC/AV1 for fast exports and remote review.
• VRAM matters: 16–24GB is ideal for heavy grading, Fusion composites, and 8K timelines.
• Displays: Ensure the GPU has the HDMI/DisplayPort outputs to match your monitor stack.

Memory (RAM): Bigger Projects, Smoother Previews

High-res media, nested timelines, and complex comps all consume RAM. After Effects caches frames to memory for instant playback; Resolve and Premiere benefit from larger caches and background processes.

• ? 64GB for serious 4K editorial.
• ? 96–128GB for heavy AE comps, Fusion work, and multicam 6K/8K.
• ? Up to 256GB for large VFX shots and feature-length workflows.

Storage: Fast I/O and Smart Project Layout

Split your workload to avoid contention and speed up both previews and exports:

• Drive 1 — OS/Apps: NVMe Gen 4/5 SSD.
• Drive 2 — Projects/Cache: NVMe SSD for active media, previews, & scratch.
• Drive 3 — Renders/Archive: High-capacity SSD/HDD, NAS, or Thunderbolt array.

Application-Aware Tuning

Working with H.264/H.265? Hardware decode/encode on modern NVIDIA GPUs (NVDEC/NVENC) can dramatically reduce export times. RAW formats (BRAW/RED) benefit from high PCIe bandwidth and fast NVMe storage.

Recommended Quick Specs

Final configuration depends on your codec mix, resolution, delivery formats, and plugin stack.

Built for Uptime

We validate thermals, boost behavior, and sustained GPU loads before shipment. Meticulous cable management, tuned fan curves, and premium power delivery keep noise down and reliability up. Your workstation is ready for demanding timelines the moment it arrives.
