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 using 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 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 |
01:53 | * 512 MB RAM |
01:56 | * 1024 x 768 pixels 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 pixels 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 pixels Display with 24 bit color |
02:56 | * 3 Button Mouse + tablet |
02:59 | * Open GL Graphics Card with 1 GB RAM, ATI FireGL or Nvidia Quadro |
03:09 | To make sure you meet any one of the specified levels, you need to check your system configuration. |
03:16 | Minimize your browser window. |
03:19 | Go to the Control Panel. Once here, double click on the System icon. |
03:25 | So, here you can see the current specifications of your machine and compare it against what the Blender Foundation suggests. |
03:35 | Most Windows Operating systems are either 32-bit or 64-bit. I am using 32-bit Windows. |
03:44 | The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way the CPU handles information. |
03:51 | The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts RAM more effectively than a 32-bit system. |
03:59 | 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.blenderguru .com/the-ultimate-guide-to-buying-a- computer-for-blender. |
04:21 | This guide gives you detailed information about Operating system, |
04:29 | CPU, |
04:35 | RAM, |
04:41 | Graphics card, |
04:49 | Case, |
04:55 | and hard drive. |
05:02 | So, that completes the tutorial on the Hardware Requirements for running Blender. |
05:07 | This tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT. |
05:15 | More information on the same is available at the following links. oscar.iitb.ac.in and spoken-tutorial.org/NMEICT-Intro. |
05:32 | The Spoken Tutorial Project: conducts workshops using spoken tutorials; |
05:37 | also gives certificates to those who pass an online test. |
05:42 | For more details, please write to contact@spoken-tutorial.org |
05:50 | Thanks for joining us |
05:53 | and this is Monisha from IIT Bombay, signing off. |
