New Member lutoluto Posted December 22, 2016 New Member Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Hey y'all, first of all merry xmas and happy new year! I am new here since I just started with 3D Coat. The funny thing is my company saw me doing their products in 3D Coat and they are buying licenses and computers now. For my personal use my 7 year old pc made it okay with small amounts of polys, but I need to go realistic, high poly and render stuff out in external renderers too. I did a small couch which was really hard with going highh in detail and my pc was reallyyyyyy slow. I want to go fast and high in everything now o.o I searched quite a lot but most of them time there are older threads or talking about what is okay. But I would like to know what's a must in specs for working professional now. Can somebody tell me what 3D coat is using and how important stuff like Cuda Units and Vram and stuff like processor power and and and is? I am so confused by all that graphic cards and things they have these days, liek these cuda stuff Perhaps what would be good for other renderers too? This would be so awesome, if there is a possibility I would by cookies for everyone who is having some advice for me and my company Thank you very much for every answer and have a nice day!

Carlosan Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Hi ! On that config 3D-Coat will run, but will be very slow. For normal using at least 4GB ram required + 512 video ram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Member lutoluto Posted December 22, 2016 Author New Member Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 thanks. I now have 4x3.2ghz i5 / 8gb ram and nvidia 560ti and it is pretty slow and laggy after like 5 million polys... I am looking for some high end stuff, but dont know where to look first since I read Cuda pointsare important and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 The best price/performance ratio is offered by the NVIDIA GTX 1070 8GB and NVIDIA GTX 1080 8GB GPUs. On the higher-end, the NVIDIA TITAN X (Pascal) offers excellent performance and 12GB of VRAM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for helping out!! The more RAM, the better. I have 12 GB and I often run into lag with complex models. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
