Hi everyone, we just got a new Next Engine 3D scanner here at the University of Iowa morphometrics lab and I was wondering if anyone had any experience using it on computers with different hardware. The minimum requirements are 2GB or RAM and a 256MB video card, and the recommended requirements are 4GB of RAM and a 512MB video card. Does anyone have experience using it with both the minimum and recommended requirements? None of the computers we have currently are powerful enough to run it, so we'll have to get a new one. Getting more RAM isn't an issue but most of the default computers that can be ordered from the university come with just a 256MB video card. So if the lower power video card works just fine then that's great, but if the difference in performance with a 512MB card is significant then I'll push for that.
