This article lists the requirements and supported graphics cards GPUs for a PC in order to run InSpec.
This applies to P2 Post 2020 Machines

A graphics card from one of the supported GPU brands as well as a G3D Mark score of more than 1000 is required to run InSpec.

The website PassMark lists many graphics cards GPUs with the performance score “G3D Mark”:

Supported GPU brands are Nvidia NVidia and AMD /(ATI).

The following models are examples of supported graphics cards that meet the minimum requirements:

  • AMD Radeon HD series like 5700 or better

  • Nvidia GeForce 450 or better

  • Nvidia [>5][>700]

  • NVidia GeForce [>4][>50]

  • NVidia Quadro FX4800, K1100M, 2000M, M500M or better

The italicized names can be searched in the “Videocard Name” field on PassMark in combination with a value of 1000 for the G3D Mark in order to filter appropriate cards:

Note that a G3D score of 1000 is a minimumvalue. Hardware selected to meet but not exceed the minimum specifications should be assumed to reflect minimal workflows. If the intent is to use high-resolution / multi-monitor setups, programs with high feature counts, or visualize large, dense point clouds, the GPU should be selected to reflect these workflows by suitably exceeding the minimum specifications.
