Workstations for Lumion

Real-time rendering that runs almost entirely on the graphics card, where video memory decides how large a project stays smooth.

Task by task

What Lumion actually needs

1

Building the scene

Needs: The graphics card, then one fast core

The viewport is rendered by the graphics card, so its speed sets the frame rate.

2

Rendering stills and video

Needs: Graphics card speed and memory

Final images and animations render on the card.

The same advice applies to Twinmotion, D5 Render and Enscape.
