What are Hololight Space Hardware Recommendations?

GPU Compatibility, Device Compatibility and other Hardware Requirements

Hololight Space GPU compatibility guide

Hololight Space is a powerful 3D CAD rendering tool. Running Hololight Space requires a powerful enough graphics processing unit (GPU) to render the mixed-reality images the server machine sends to connected client devices. These different client devices have different graphics processing needs because of each device’s unique display. The following GPUs are the least powerful models that can capably run Hololight Space. Anything more advanced should work just fine.

The list is based on internal testing as well as customer and partner feedback given a typical Hololight Space workload. Performance will vary depending on the size and complexity of the 3D models loaded.

Other Hardware Recommendations

These hardware requirements cover most use cases. If you are using especially complex models with Hololight Space you may still encounter performance issues. If performance isn’t meeting your needs you may need a more powerful server machine to run Hololight Space. Contact Hololight support for help in evaluating your hardware needs if Hololight Space is not meeting your expectations.
