mikebolton Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Hi Guys, I'm having a problem opening large detailed files and rendering barely anything on my computer. It used to be okay, but recently im struggling to do anything. I'm using 3ds max 2012 and vray 1.5 I'm currently using a quad core laptop. The rough spec is: Processor - Intel Core 2 Quad Q9000 Hard drive - 500gb Memory - 4096mb DDR2 Graphics Card - ATI Mobility Radeon HD4670 1GB I've got 240gb free on the hard drive. Any help or information on what i can do/need would be much appreciated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimitris Tolios Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Do you have your resources monitor open to see whether 3DS maxes out RAM and crashes? 4GB is pushing it with large scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
