RTX 4070 GPU rendering question

Hi,

I’m still on Keyshot 9. Will I be able to take advantage of GPU rendering if I upgrade my mobile workstation to one with a RTX 4070 graphics card?

Thanks.

Not sure. I guess it depends on the driver version.

I can’t remember KS9 very well but if you’re currently rendering using CPU you will sure see an improvement. Just not sure how limited GPU renders were in KS9 so you need to check what’s supported and what not in an old manual I think. If I’m correct there used to be a bigger difference in materials you could use in CPU mode vs. GPU mode.

Besides, I’m personally not a fan of laptops with a dedicated GPU. They are pricey/heavy and quite slower than using a desktop with the same card. Drop a second hand game PC with a 3090 in some corner and use that to render, faster and more VRAM.
