The official system requirements
The developer of the program 3D Max Autodesk published for the program minimum system requirements that are needed to run on laptops and computers. The official information presented on the website of the company.
In order to successfully install and run the program 3D Max 2014, you must have Windows 7 or Windows 8 as main system on your computer. The processor must have 64-bit architecture, the power of the kernel affects the speed of rendering and image creation. 4 GB RAM is the minimum requirement, however the developer recommends 8GB of RAM for more or less comfortable work. 4.5 GB hard drive should be available for installation. It is also advisable to update to the latest version installed on the system browser.
Selection of laptop
The choice of laptop should be done in accordance with the three key characteristics that are critical to run the program. First, you need to pay attention to the graphics card and its power – the performance of the graphics system, the smoother will be the construction of images and the more graphic objects can be displayed. Graphics performance is affected by the level of comfort when working with the program. It is desirable that the amount of graphics memory of the laptop was not less than 1 GB. To run 3D Max will need a discrete graphics card from Nvidia or Radeon as newer models.
The other important characteristic to run 3D Max is the CPU, number of cores which must be at least 4 for rendering. It is advisable to use the latest processors from Intel (Core i7) and AMD (FX-9590 and above). The higher clock speed and more cores in the stone, the better it will be able to handle the computational operations and the construction of complex graphic objects.
The third important characteristic is the amount of RAM, the amount of which depends on the volume progresemos scene. The larger the object, the more data required to store in memory. It is desirable that the amount of RAM not less than 8GB, but when building complex objects may require a laptop with 16 GB.
The cost
It should be noted that the cost of the laptop which will be able to operate 3D Max, will be at least 40,000 p Only the most expensive models are able to provide optimal performance in the program. If you use 3D Max for educational purposes or at the Amateur level, you can purchase a laptop that meets the minimum requirements of the manufacturer. In this case, the final cost of the device will be approximately 25000 p
