Hi there!

Guys, could you tell me which videocard is better for COMSOL product (rendering, etc):

NVIDIA PNY Quadro P400 or MSI GeForce GTX 1650 GAMING X? They are about the same price but GTX 1650 has more memory onboard (2GB vs 4GB) and more faster. Nevertheless the first one is the professional one and it's listed on COMSOL System Requirements (there is no GTX version here).

So I'm wondering why would professinal videocard with less memory be more preferable than GTX 1650?

Thank you!

P.S. My config: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, 64 GB 3200 MhZ RAM.

Hello,

On the COMSOL System requirements page, the graphics cards that are listed by name are those that have specifically been tested. As indicated in the note below that list, many other cards will work. We just can't test every card on the market.

Best,

Jeff
