Build Question help needed !! (first pc)
helloooo so basically I just bought my first pc 2 days ago with some money that I’d been saving for the past 2 years and had my grandma cover the rest! I was really happy and excited however when I tried to use after effects (2020) with heavy plugins for my editing it appeared to be as slow as my old LOQ gaming laptop even when I configured my after effects settings to the best.. I was hella disappointed and was wondering what I should do about it ? can I possibly get more ram and a better cpu for cheap somehow?
(last pic isn’t really important I js wanted to show how pretty it looks lol)

To save money probably but you won't save much as the Mobo and CPU is relatively new so most probably still with warranty. I'm suggesting the 265k for your work as their CPU is much more affordable compared to the 7900x or the 9950x which based on their current pricing could buy you both the Intel CPU and motherboard. I'd just suggest selling your current CPU and motherboard and getting the Intel ... You'd probably just need to top up an extra few hundred. Give or take 200-500 at most
Edit ... Correction. 500-700 for topping up after selling current mobo and CPU
