System requirements for Vectorworks with Redshift for Windows

Last update:

3/5/2024

The rendering style "Redshift by Maxon" uses the computer's GPU and CPU to perform photorealistic rendering. The following system requirements relate specifically to this rendering style. Redshift will use the computer's GPU to render if it meets the requirements below. If the GPU does not meet the requirements, then only the computer's CPU will be used to perform Redshift rendering. A message in the Edit Render Style dialog box indicates the availability of Redshift. When Redshift is selected but unavailable, the custom Renderworks rendering style is used instead.
