It will work, but better to go for a Geforce card, these are optimized for realtime rendering!

Quadro cards are very expensive for the performance they deliver. Geforce cards are cheaper and better at rendering 3D scenes.

Also, the memory on your card is quite low. You can run Lumion but when you start to add big models or a lot of textures you might run into problems.

This features a GeForce Go 7200 card and is not nearly enough to run Lumion. We designed Lumion using a GeForce 8800 GTX as absolute minimum. Recommended is Geforce 260 or better. Laptops usually have 3D cards that are slow compared to desktop 3D cards.

Here you can see how your card performs:
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphics-Cards-Benchmark-List.844.0.html

As you can see the 7200 Go is really, really slow. It has only 4 Pixel shading units while the best card has 352 (Non-SLI or Crossfire). That's a BIG difference! I'd say cards that have around 30.000 points in 3D Mark 2003 start to be fast enough for Lumion.

Hi,

I'm working with Revit architecture and i'm using lumion for the renderings. Just because it's much faster then Revit it self. But we now have three new workstations at my work. These workstations are made for Revit. We have in all three workstations a Nvidia Quadro 600, if i'm rendering higher then 1280x720 the program jams. Is there any solution for this jam?

Greetings

My HP laptop has the Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT card It's this ok?
What you think about the PC spec (system, processor, processor speed, Ram, best card and ram).
I' ll upgrade my PC and i want work with Lumion in differents projects.
I am architect and i use Archicad

It will work on a GF9600 probably, but it will to be slow to do some big project.

Most important part is the videocard, so if you motherboard can handle it by minimum like a GF 480.

Thanks for your answer.
For the sterescopic 3d movie what are the minimum requirements?
The system, processor, processor speed, and Ram don't matter?

It does not matter, you need a good video card to use Lumion.

I would go for a i7 +3ghz, 8GB ram, GF580, if that video card is to expensieve, take a GF480

Here you can find some charts comparing the different videocard.

Most Nvidia cards score better then the ATI
