28 Hi Nikos,
29
30 regardless how powerful a payable graphics card may be...
31 if one uses the same graphicsscards for rendering as for the desktop
32 the desktop starts heavily lagging/freezing just in the moment
33 blenders rendering engine Cycles start working.
34 At least, these are my experiences.
35 Thats why I use an old just-fast-enough graphics card for the desktop
36 and a second, more current one for rendering only.
37
38 Best regards,
39 Meino
