Hardware Recommendations for Wondershare Filmora
While Arvuti.in maintains a Hardware Selection and Configuration Guide for Wondershare Filmora that is much better than the simple “Hardware Requirements” list most developers provide, it contains some information that, in our experience, is either dated or simply not the best practice for a solid and reliable workstation. In addition, it lacks specific information on performance between different hardware options, such as what the benefit actually is between different models or numbers of GPUs.
To offset this missing information, we’ve taken the time to perform our own testing to determine both what hardware runs Wondershare Filmora the best and exactly what kind of performance you can expect from different hardware options.

Processor

Professionals and beginners both use Filmora, a flexible video editing application, for a variety of purposes. Comparing Filmora to other advanced video editing software solutions, users have found it to be easier to use and have a shorter learning curve. Because of this, editing videos for social media platforms, YouTube channels, and video ads is more common.
Recently, Filmora added some AI features (AI Smart Cutout, AI Audio Denoise, AI Audio Stretch, etc.). These AI features consume more CPU cores. To a certain extent, more cores should improve performance, although this is more true for exporting than it is for live playback. However, Wondershare Filmora doesn’t scale perfectly with higher core counts. In addition, keep in mind that scaling is not universal and can be different depending on whether you use an Intel or AMD processor. Because of this, we highly recommend that you look at straight benchmark performance for different CPUs rather than trying to pick a CPU based on core count (or any other specification) alone.
The AMD Ryzen 3000 Series, Intel 11th Generation or newer, Threadripper 2000 Series, or newer CPU with Quad Core Processor is the minimum CPU recommended for Wondershare Filmora.
Memory (RAM)
While the exact amount of RAM you require will vary depending on the duration, complexity, and codec of your project, we usually advise at least 16 GB for Wondershare Filmora. But Wondershare Filmora can quickly use up a lot of memory, so you should make sure you have enough RAM on your computer. Remember that every piece of software requires a different amount of RAM, so if you frequently work with many programs at once, you might want to increase the amount of RAM in your system.
Depending on the various resolutions you work at, we do have a rough guideline that may help you determine the precise amount you require.
- It is recommended to have 16GB of Ram for 1080p Resolution
- It is recommended to have 32GB of Ram for 4K Resolution
- It is recommended to have 64GB of Ram for 6K/8K+ Resolution

Video Card (GPU)

Wondershare Filmora makes extensive use of the video card(s) in your computer to enhance rendering and playback speeds. As a result, the performance of your system is directly impacted by the GPU you choose. It can use powerful cards with 8GB of VRAM. Additionally, while working with such types of data, the Studio version offers GPU-accelerated H.264 encoding and decoding, which frequently leads to a noticeable boost in performance.
Depending on the various resolutions you work at, we do have a rough guideline that may help you determine the precise amount you require.
- It is recommended to use 4GB of VRam for 1080p Resolution
- It is recommended to use 6 GB of VRam for 2K Resolution
- It is recommended to use 8GB of VRam for 4K Resolution
- It is recommended to use 12GB+ of VRam for 6K/8K+ Resolution
Storage Device
Primary Drive: OS/Software (SSD/NVMe): This includes your operating system and the base Wondershare Filmora installation. An SSD is highly recommended as it will greatly improve how fast the OS and programs startup, but you can also upgrade to a faster NVMe drive for a small performance benefit. The recommended storage for the installation of software is not more than 10 GB.
Since the primary drive will primarily be used to store Windows and software, including all software (except large games), it doesn't need to be that large for the majority of users; a 500GB SSD will be enough.
Secondary Drive: Project Files (Platter/SSD/NVMe) Having a second storage (either SSD or HHD) for storing assets and effects is a wonderful alternative if you have additional money to spend or keep a lot of them around for use on different projects. Of course, an internal or external hard drive is a more cost-effective option than a high-capacity SSD if you need more mass storage and preservation.
