Time' Narration
00.03 Welcome to the series of Blender tutorials.
00.06 In this tutorial, we shall look at the hardware specifications and requirements for Blender 2.59.
00.16 This script has been contributed by Chirag Raman.


00.20 First Up, we shall look at what the official Blender website has to say about the hardware requirements.
00.28 Open your internet browser.
00.30 I am using Firefox 3.09.
00.34 In the address bar, type www.blender.org and hit the Enter key.
00.44 This should take you to the official blender website.
00.47 For ease of demonstration, I have already loaded the System Requirements page.
00.53 Blender is Free and Open Source.
00.56 Blender 2.59 works on nearly all operating systems.


01.02 For this tutorial I am Windows XP operating system.
01.07 Different parts of Blender are dependent on different pieces of computer hardware.
01.13 A faster CPU and more RAM can help to increase rendering speed,
01.18 while the speed of the Blender interface, viewports and real-time engine is influenced by the speed of the graphics card.
01.26 Fast and large hard drives can also speed up work when dealing with large video files.
01.32 As you can see, the Blender Organization shows Hardware Specifications for 3 sections of usage:
01.40 Minimum, Good and Production levels.
01.44 The Minimum hardware specifications required to run Blender are –
01.48 1 GHZ Single Core CPU
1.53 512 MB RAM
01.56 1024 x 768 px Display with 16 bit color
02.03 3 Button Mouse
02.05 Open GL Graphics Card with 64 MB RAM
02.12 The Good specifications level includes –
02.15 2 GHZ Dual Core CPU
02.20 2 GB RAM
02.22 1920 x 1200 px Display with 24 bit color
02.28 3 Button Mouse
02.30 Open GL Graphics Card with 256 or 512 MB RAM
02.40 Production level hardware specifications will be –
02.43 64 bits, Multi Core CPU
02.47 8-16 GB RAM
02.50 Two times 1920 x 1200 px Display with 24 bit color
02.57 3 Button Mouse + tablet
03.00 Open GL Graphics Card with 1 GB RAM, ATI FireGL or Nvidia Quadro
03.10 To make sure you meet any one of the specified levels, you need to check your system configuration.
03.17 Minimize your browser window.
03.20 Go to the Control Panel. Once here double click on the System icon.
03.26 So here you can see the current specifications of your machine and compare it against what the Blender Foundation suggests.
03.36 Most Windows Operating systems are either 32-bit or 64-bit. I am using 32-bit Windows.
03.45 The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way the CPU handles information.
03.52 The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts RAM more effectively than a 32-bit system.
04.00 Also if you are planning to invest in a new computer for Blender,
04.04 It would be a good idea to check out this article over at www. Blender Guru .com/ The Ultimate Guide to buying a computer for Blender.
04.21 This guide gives you detailed information about Operating system, CPU, RAM, Graphics card, Case, and hard drive.
05.04 So that completes the tutorial on the Hardware Requirements for running Blender.
05.08 This Tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT.
05.17 More information on the same is available at the following links oscar.iitb.ac.in, and spoken-tutorial.org/NMEICT-Intro.
05.33 The Spoken Tutorial Project
05.35 conducts workshops using spoken tutorials
05.39 also gives certificates to those who pass an online test.
05.44 For more details, please contact contact@spoken-tutorial.org
05.51 Thanks for joining us
05.53 and this is Monisha from IIT Bombay signing off.
