Hi!
I’m about to purchase a laptop for interior design and I need some help figuring out the graphic cards. Which one would it be best to use Sketchup + Enscape as smooth as possible?

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB
16GB RAM
Intel Core i7-1165G7 processor

AMD Radeon™ Graphics
16GB RAM
AMD Ryzen™ 7 5825U
Thank you!

@nico1287 , welcome to our Forum.
While the first laptop should work with Enscape, we still reccomend checking out our recommended system requirements here:
https://learn.enscape3d.com/blog/knowledgebase/system-requirements/
And the excerpt of interest:
Especially if you plan to work with projects that may not always be on the “smaller side” we reccomend going with at least a GPU that is the equivalent of a RTX 2070. Of course, a laptop with 2070 will offer less performance compared to using the desktop counterpart graphics card, hence why it make more sense to go with something like a mobile 2080 instead - Of course, if budget allows we’d even reccomend a RTX 3060 / 3070 mobile instead.
If your budget is tight though and you can really only purchase one of the laptops above, then please be aware that you may have to reduce the quality/size of either renderings and/or projects of yours, and go with the GTX 1650 laptop as the other setup isn’t officially supported.
