System Requirements
• A computer with 3ds Max 2011/3ds Max Design 2011 or later, 64 bit versions only;
• Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, 64 bit versions only;
• Intel Pentium IV or compatible processor with SSE2 support;
• 128 MB RAM and 350 MB swap minimum - recommended 4 GB or more RAM, 4 GB or more swap file;
• NUMA architecture is supported but not recommended*
Note: More efficient rendering on a NUMA machine is achieved with several copies of 3ds Max or DR render servers. In both cases each instance should be limited to one NUMA node because of the slower access that a core has to the rest of the RAM.
