Re: Poser Keeps Freezing :(
-----------------------------------
Hi Ahjah,  It's not for the rendering that I'd buy that new chip, but just so poser wouldn't freeze every time I try to delete something. I've waited as long a half hour, and nothing happens. My remark on rendering time was based only on the first few centimeters that appeared at the top in firefly. I just wanted to see if it would render at all, and apparently it will. I've had some complex renders on my other pc take nearly twelve hours for a 800x600 image.


[quote user="ahjah" post="44713"]Hi John.
I don't think it's a graphics card issue. Render time depends on the CPU alone. The graphics card is only needed for the preview display AFAIK. If you experience significantly longer rendering times than before on the same hardware it could be you are using different render settings than you used to. Raytracing, depth of field, and especially ambient occlusion can affect render time extremely. I'd check all this before buying new hardware...[/quote]
