Question My specs for video editing.

[Andrew_263]

Hey I do vido editing and my DaVinci resolve has been really choppy. Even at 1/2 display quality.
My specs are:
Rtx 3060ti
32gb ram
Ryzen 7 3800x
I run off m.2 nvme ssd
Have a hdd of 2tb

Are these specs not good enough to push threw DaVinci resolve?
What changes would you recommend to make it run smoother I would prefer not to upgrade my motherboard for am5 cpu...

On a side note my m.2 nvme ssd that my windows is on keeps saying scanning and repairing every time I boot up my pc. Why does this happen? Is it ok to just leave it? Is there a fix I can do to fix it?

Thanks for the help

M.2 is 50% full. Due to budget I only have 500gb of ssd but I keep vast majority of non essential programs on hdd with rhe exeption being my editing software

Assume your m.2 is about to croak so have a full backup.
