![]() With just normal home photography my 7 year old quad core i7 (no discreet GPU) is not great, but it is ok, but with editing lots of photos it really is too slow. So after culling, editing about 2500 photos for each day of the event and exporting to jpegs with the JpegMini plugin. My photography changes through the year from just doing some small projects to just recently I took photos over 5 days at a dance concert. Looking at the specs from C1, they sit on the fence for preferred GPUs, but basically faster = better and more VRAM the better, so I'm looking at at least 4GB VRAM, preferably 8GB if I can stretch. From what I can tell, AMD drivers used to be a bit buggy, but have come a long way and are much better now, so certainly AMD GPUs are an option. Does anyone have experience with both AMD and Nvidia currently available cards to be able to comment on this? It's hard to find any real comparison on the web, youtube etc. I've read that Nvida cards are generally better for creator type applications (video editing, photo editing etc), but with OpenCL that C1 uses, I've also read AMD GPUs can be better. With GPU prices so high at the moment, I'm looking at something that will make Capture One run quite well, with out breaking the bank (and I can upgrade in the future if GPU prices ever come back down.) I've read some posts, but in Capture One forums and here on Reddit, a lot of posts are more than a few years old and Capture One and GPUs have moved on a lot since then. My old laptop is not cutting it, so I need to upgrade, I'm looking at just building a desktop to handle Capture One, Topaz labs suite, Affinity photo and Davinci Resolve. ![]() I'm spending more time taking photos in my side business these days, so I'm spending more and more time in Capture One. ![]()
