Anyone that has a 3950x that want to benchmark Sony Vegas?

I'm looking on maybe getting a Ryzen 3950x for my Sony Vegas & After Effects rendering.

 

I wonder however how much performance boost I can see in Sony Vegas, Does Sony Vegas use all cores?

 

Could someone that has this processor open up Sony Vegas and start rendering a project just to see if it uses all cores?

Thanks!

Since you are using AE why not have premiere instead.

I used vegas before, ever since i tried premiere, i never go back.

Premiere have excellent GPU+CPU rendering capabilities.

Well anyway, on the topic, vegas will use all the cores no problem.

I've seen videos where it utilized all available cores in a 16 cores threadripper.

I have been using Sony Vegas from ~2014-2015 and I am so "into" the software, I can make all my edits so quickly in it, 

Then lately I have been moving more and more into After Effects.

 

Is 3950x good for After Effects?

Yes, vegas is easy to learn, but have limited capabilities, especially the gpu rendering engine.

You really should try premiere, learn the shortcuts, once you do it should be as fast if not faster than vegas.

Use after effects only if you want complex animation, for linear editing it's too complicated, waste of time.

Use Premiere + AE and adobe audition for the audio very seamles integration, not to mention you can drag and drop photoshop with layers.

 

3950X is good for anything that support multithreading: AE, Premiere and Vegas included.

Combined with a GPU render, it would render anything blistering fast.
