@jonfar said: thats good to know, because my 100+ mb files lag a bit ...that Sketchup was mostly CPU/RAM intensive... SU is CPU intensive (single-thread performance), nevertheless for a balanced system an appropriate GPU (as well as enough RAM) is of course required too. Don't invest to much in a GPU, at least for sole SU modeling purposes, otherwise you will be disappointed.

thanks I tried that and it works But the older method was way easier, dont know why they changed it.

yeah, sorry if my response seemed upset, I didnt mean to be disrespectful nor am I upset I was just being playful and engaging in the sarcasm of the whole "google it" thing and throwing the sarcasm back at you. I know sometimes people get misunderstood on the web, cause it's all just written and open to misinterpretation. Thanks for the responses

@jonfar said: Will I see a huge improvement from my 750ti 2gb to a, let's say, Geforce 970 4gb? "a huge improvement" probably not but wait for the new GTX 1060 available next week anyhow, roughly on par with a GTX 980 for a list price of ~280 bucks.

oh, yeah, sorry about that... i had to take them off, because of the background i used in PS
