I just upgraded to Poser Pro 11 myself--- and I have an opportunity to get a better computer to run it on--and a better graphics card. Does anyone know what the "ideal" setup is to run Poser 11/poser pro11? I would like to improve my Superfly renders--my old machine can't seem to get past a certain level before bailing out of renders after a few hours, and I need something more in the range of 30-40 minutes to be useful (I make stuff so I need to render over and over again, and make promos)

Hi there

Ideal setup,hard to say,depends on budget,if budget allows then two GPU will be best there,I'm personally running GTX1080 with Titan X(Maxwell) and my render times are pretty good,single person in 1920x1200 dimensions I usually render around in 2 minutes and less,this depends on lots of factors,settings and if you are using SSS etc if you are add lots of clothing plus hair then render times still is reasonable at 4-5 minutes per render

For 30-40 mins range then I would go route GTX1070 and add extra RAM(32GB is and should be yours minimum if you do render larger renders and if you are multitask),if budget allows then GTX1080 or GTX980ti will be great card too

This one render took me 135 seconds(2 minutes and 15 seconds)

Hope this helps

Thanks,Jura
