  • upgrade — will my system run CS4?

    Posted by David Oulashian on April 28, 2009 at 3:36 pm

    Hello,

    General question — I want to upgrade to Adobe CS4 Production Premium (the discount ends April 30!) but I don’t know if my computer can hack it. Please bear in mind that this is my home computer and will only be editing DV footage and burning to Standard DVDs (I am not using this with clients — just home movies and tutorials etc — stuff for myself/playing with AE, making light saber battles, etc)

    My system:
    Pentium 4 3.06Ghz
    1.5 gigs Ram
    800 Mhz fsb
    Windows XP Pro.

    Thanks for any advice.

    It will work, but it will be very slow, especially in rendering and exporting.

    Your best bet would be to download the trial version and test it for yourself.

    What about for the rest of the CS4 Production Premium Suite?

    As I said, the trial versions will allow you to judge for yourself.

    It is next to impossible for us to predict the outcome with so many variables involved.

    Cheers
