Rendering applications use GPU acceleration in Rhino 7 and the integrated Cycles Raytrace renderer can be configured for GPU acceleration.

In version 6, display performance has been improved. Powerful graphics cards are able to display more complex models more smoothly by reducing or completely eliminating display delays (judder).

The standard is to use a graphics card with at least Open GL 4.1. We recommend that you use as much graphics card memory as your budget allows. Pay attention to the number of available memory banks so that you can easily upgrade the working memory if necessary. To create the optimal conditions, we load our business workstation in quad-channel mode. You can display the memory usage at any time via the task manager under the menu *Performance*. For demanding 3D renderings, 64 GB or more of RAM is fine.

If you are modeling large scenes, we recommend 32GB, DDR4 with ECC support (automatic error correction). For simple constructions, 16 GB RAM is sufficient. The basis for a professional workstation is at least 16 GB of RAM. We cannot share the manufacturer's minimum recommendation of 8 GB RAM. For this purpose we recommend a workstation with DUAL CPU, for example 2 x Intel Xeon Gold 6142 with 16 cores each and maximum 3.70 GHz, alternatively an Intel i9 10-Core with maximum 4.5 GHz in Turbo Boost or an Intel Xeon W-2155 with 10 cores and 4.50 GHz in Turbo Boost.

Often a multi-core capable rendering engine, such as V-Ray, is used for modeling or virtualization. For 3D renderings, Rhino uses all available CPU cores. We recommend using a workstation with Intel Xeon 6- or 8-core with a high clock frequency with a Turbo Boost performance of 4.00 GHz. Rhino 3D uses a maximum of 1-2 cores of its CPU for the development and construction process. Rhinoceros 3D is a cost-effective CAD program for architects, designers and product designers. The program offers you compatibility with many other drawing, mechanical engineering and design programs. With the user-friendly 3D design software Rhinoceros, short for Rhino 3D, you are able to model any 3D body.
