<p>Hi Luke,</p>
<p>The higher end card should indeed give you better performance.</p>
<p>However, there is a hard coded limit in QGIS 3D at the moment. A
3D scene cannot load more than 500 Mo of 3D objects even if you
video card has a lot of available memory when the 3D scene is
created.<br>
The idea is to avoid out of memory crashes or GPU hangs. For
example, a lot a 3D scenes could be loaded or other program may
consume some gpu ram.<br>
</p>
<p>Benoît de Mezzo and I have been trying to remove this limit but
the code is not ready yet.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Jean<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking to get a new Dell laptop with
i9 processor and 64GB memory and wondering what the minimum
requirements for working with QGIS 3D is. I had a coworker
who could not run 3D on his laptop assume due to his lower end
graphics card. I don’t offhand know what the spec’s on his
machine are.<o:p></o:p></p>
