Dforce Hair and lag

in New Users
Hello,
i have bough my first Dforce stuff, the product i bought is called "classic long hair" i can't tell it's awesome yet because i'm waiting for the simulation to be done actually xD
once i put the hair on my character, the hair looked kinda crazy (like jackson five or something like that) i guess it's normal, but it was VERY laggy too
is it normal ? same for the simulation it takes a lot of time and my character don't even have clothes and these i no other object in the scene, just hair and character to try it but it's taking lots of time
i think i have a decent computer it's an i5 with 16go of RAM and my graphic card is a GTX 1050
is there any option i should check to get faster?
thank you

depends on other factors also like do you have anything else running on your PC in the4 background, etc, what is "lots of time"?. Compared to what a few PAs have said in the forums, your system is below decent (mine also). That being said, this product is a bit heavy on resources, but considering the type of product it is, that is to be expected for decent results. In a posed scene for me it takes about 20-30 minutes to completely finish the simulation. With just the figure and hair I can get it done in 5-10 mins
I had photoshop CC 2018 running in the same time, maybe it's because of that... it took me about 50 mins to do the render, with just a character and the hair...
i wanted to know also if i should do my render with the CPU or Geforce in the photoreal device ?
the problem for the hair is, how can i try if it's fine or not (like the wind etc...) if it takes like one hour to do the simulation, especially because i don't know the product if i have to do like 5 simulation before getting the effect i want, it could took me like 5 hours ? xD
