Hi everyone (^ ^) I just bought a new computer and I’m very new to blender – I started about a week ago. I’m looking to learn more, so I’m trying to buy a graphics card that can render my animations (rendering with Cycles). I want to switch to GPU rendering, on Optix if possible. I was wondering if anyone has good recommendations for graphics cards. I don’t need anything high-end, and I can’t afford anything probably over about $400 because I’m still just a highschool student T_T… Thanks everyone ( ^ ^)b
Look up Blender render benchmarks.
Optix means Nvidia 20xx or 30xx.
2070 or above, if you can afford it.
Try eBay for used card from a seller with excellent review record and many sales.
