For Windows, the system should be running Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit) with a modern Intel or AMD 64-bit CPU, a minimum of 8 GB RAM (16 GB or more preferred), and an NVIDIA GPU with CUDA Compute Capability 5.0 or higher, ideally with 4 GB or more VRAM. An SSD is recommended for optimal performance. The setup should be compatible with host applications such as Cinema 4D, Maya, Houdini, 3ds Max, and Blender. An internet connection is required for activation and updates. For macOS, the operating system should be macOS 11 or newer, running on Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3) or an Intel-based Mac with Metal-supported graphics (note: NVIDIA GPUs are not supported on macOS). At least 8 GB of RAM is required (16+ GB recommended), with an SSD for improved performance. Internet access is necessary for licensing and plugin downloads.
