1700x or 7700k premiere pro cs5.5/ cs6

Hey, 

I'm planning a couple of editing rigs which will be using premiere Cs 5.5 or if I can find the discs Cs 6. The option to change the software isn't really there for reasons I won't go into but the hardware can be altered if needed.

I currently have 2 different plans ready, one with Ryzen 1700x and one with 7700k. These are essentially the same price and all the hardware that can be is the same, they won't be overclocked due to this being for work so 'fastest out of the box' is the aim. 

Another point is that the workflow is almost exclusively 1080p, there may be some 2k thrown in but that's it. 

I know Ryzen is great for editing ect but in all benchmarks I have found are hovering around the 4k area with nothing giving me a relevant comparison. 

 

So in short given the following parameters,

 

Premiere pro cs5.5/ cs6

Predominantly 1080p workflow

Same cost

NOT overclocking

 

Does anyone have any knowledge on which would be best, this exact question seems to be Google proof! 

 

Many appreciations in advance.

This should help you:

Premiere Pro is a mixture of singlethreaded and multithreaded workloads, I'd wait for the 8700K and then decide. Out of those two that you mentioned, I'd choose the 1700X.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT 16GB GDDR6 Motherboard: MSI PRESTIGE X570 CREATION
AIO: Corsair H150i Pro RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 32GB 3600MHz DDR4 Case: Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic PSU: Corsair RM850x White

I can't find anything as to whether the older software could utilise all the cores and when looking over benchmarks the only 1080p I could fine was from a 4k source. In which the results are far less clear than in other 4k only results. Also it has been said to avoid AMD for premiere in the past before Ryzen was a thing.

Thank you, I have looked into those results also but they all source footage from 4k upwards. I also had no idea coffee lake was out so soon, but i don't think that will help as to whether intel is better given my specific needs. I don't know whether older premiere can utilise all the cores.

Just an update, I have made 2 different rigs for this scenario. One with 7700k and one with 1700x. Results are varied. It totally depends which codec you encode with and where you do the rendering. The two systems have different strengths but as a conclusion they are both good depending on what you are doing, for example intel wins easily for encoding to h264 dispite less threads but AMD wins when making a play back dvd. So it totally depends what you are doing.

What about this?
