  • Will adding more RAM make any difference

    I am running ProAnimator as a standalone application for my 3D models right now. I am rendering out video as Quicktime Animation with Million + colors. I just got more RAM for my computer for other purposes so I will be up to 8GB. Will this make any difference on my speed of render time?
    Just curious.

    Hi Ken.

    It’s unlikely that you’ll see a significant difference in render speeds with more RAM (unless you’re working with very large data sets or have a bunch of apps open at once).

    Other users may have a better answer, but I’ve found that as long as I have a hundred megs or so for ProAnimator, my render times are fairly consistent.
