Recomended Iray setting for low end machines

FabeFabe Posts: 222

What would be some good Iray settings for lower end machines that might still give OK results? I'm currently running a Ryzen 5 2400G 16 GB ram and a 4GB Geforce 1650.

    Minimum 32GB's of RAM and minimum 8GB's of VRAM (preferably on an RTX card)

    damn,I was hoping I could turn down or adjust some the render setting within Daz  but if its a hardware problem then I guess I'm going to have to let thiing cook for hours or find some other solution.

    The baseload of Windows. DS and the scene, plus the 1GB's for emulation of the RTX features (on non-RTX card) and the needed "Working Space", take already more VRAM than your card has.

    DoI at least have a decent enough CPU?

    With DS and Iray, the CPU doesn't really matter if one has a recent enough (RTX) Nvidia GPU with minimum 8GB's of VRAM and minimum 32GB's of RAM.

    I'm not familiar with AMD CPU's to say anything about yours for rendering on CPU, except that CPU rendering in general is 10-20+ times slower than on GPU.

    Would a 12gb 2060 be any good? how many figures might I be able to render with that?

    I have a 3060 and I'm really happy with it. I've rendered 14 g8 figures at base resolution and with optimised mats.

    Nice render. The 3060 might be within my price range but I'll probaly have to upgrade my cpu to prevent bottlenecking with gaming.

    Thank you. I've been upgrading my computer this year and now have an 11th gen i7 and 96gb ram as well as the 3060. Will be purchasing another 32gb ram to bring it up to 128. I would have got an i9 but I didn't want to replace my almost brand new water cooling. Its been an expensive year but I regret nothing devil
