      Cool! I've been thinking about getting a new computer to replace my desktop machine.

        get ready for a bit of sticker shock and wait time woes on some components. The high end gpu's are trading like stocks these days. I guess the demand by data miners is at least partially driving prices up & up.

          Maybe I'll hold out for a little while then. What I've got works fine.

            Was pricing out a new work box as I think I am due new boxes in July ('23 budget) and prices seem OK. Just 2 of us in this sub-department and I always budget $5k for 2 boxes. I paid about $2k for 2 8th gen i7, 32 gb ram, 1 tb m.2 and RTX 2080. So this is not that bad for 4 years later and less than $200 more each.

            When I get new units we refurb the old ones and move them to shop offices. It's more power than they need so they never over use them. Usually get 8 years out of a box before we completely recycle.

              That seems reasonable.

              My machine is a bit more robust and came in at 6500 bucks.
              The lumion files I work with are very large and complex so I need the Horsepower.
              If it was just SU I could get by with a friendlier priced unit.

                Ah, that makes sense then. Yeah, you'd need it. The cost of doing business.

                  Same problem here. Lumion does'nt like windows 11.

                  I have a RTX 3080, when i was with windows 10, i could use Lumion without any problem with max settings, it was fast, max fps in the editor, best result with the benchmark... I upgraded my computer to windows 11, now i can't use lumion properly anymore, the editor is very slow with 1 or 2 fps, render take a lot of time, benchmark gives a very bad result, even with middle quality settings

                  Last nvidia's drivers installed, every nvidia's settings tested and optimized (i firstly tried my previous settings then followed 5 differents tutorial videos for that). every other software works fine.

                  If someone uses lumion + windows 11, can you share your lumion and nvidia's settings, or every parameters which come to your mind which could solve this problem ?

                  I wish you a great evening, respectfully

                    I dont think I said I was having issues with lumion and windows 11.

                    In fact, I have no issues at all from switching from 10 to 11.

                    I will see if I can find some time to screen shot settings from my set up. Might be a day or two before I can get at it.

                        Have you reached out to Lumion staff with your issues? They have been super helpful for me in the past when I ran into hardware issues.

                        I do not have any special settings that I have done with my GPU. Pretty much the default settings.
                        if I remember correctly I just asked the lumion forum for advice on specific settings for my gpu and followed their diections to just change one or two setting to either off or on. I was not having any issues when I asked and did not see any changes in performance when I adjusted the settings.

                        I would Highly recommend reaching out to the Lumion staff.
