Which workstation do I need for 3D rendering and CAD?
Waiting for renders costs hours every week. The right workstation keeps big models smooth on screen and finishes final renders much faster. What matters depends on whether you mostly model, render or edit video.

What matters for each job
| Job | Most important part | Why |
|---|---|---|
| CAD modelling | CPU speed per core | Most CAD software uses one core at a time |
| GPU rendering | GPU, and its memory | The whole scene has to fit in GPU memory |
| CPU rendering | Number of CPU cores | Work is shared across every core |
| Video editing | GPU, RAM and fast storage | Playback and export use all three |
| Real-time and VR | GPU | Smooth frames need a strong graphics card |
Simple sizing tips
- GPU memory: if your scenes have many high-resolution textures, more memory stops slow-downs and crashes. 16 GB suits most work; large scenes and architecture walk-throughs benefit from 24 GB or more.
- RAM: 64 GB is a comfortable start for 3D work; 128 GB or more for large scenes and 8K video.
- Storage: keep projects on fast NVMe and archive old work to larger drives.
- Certified drivers: many CAD programs are tested on professional NVIDIA RTX cards. Check your software's list of certified hardware.
