3d art is a computer intensive hobby. You won't be able to do it on a potato. If you can't afford a $400 dollar computer, 3d art isn't for you. That is just how it is.

Go to ebay - 8 core/16 thread workstations can be had for under $400. You can do a lot with these.

BTW, if you tell us what you are working with today, we can give you an upgrade path.

Exactly this. You can't expect software that's being worked on in 2020 to be kind to hardware that's several years old, and by the description in your post it's probably much older than that. Things move on, software/figures/features improve thus requiring more power to take advantage of said improvements. Stagnation is death for any program that won't keep up with the industry, especially 3d.

I'm also curious as to why you mention that you "bought" Studio. Studio is and always has been free. I think you're somehow confusing Daz Studio and Poser.
