Dear teachers, please consult the GPU cost reduction plan, thank you for your guidance, the content is as follows:

 

Aximmetry DE + Unreal Editor 5


First of all, I made it clear that I don't use ray tracing, nor do I use UE5 for rendering.  Resolution is only 1080P.


Computer 1 used Aximmetry DE and UE5 to edit the scene, and I only used lumen+nanite for this computer.


No. 2 computer graphics card 3060 + capture card record or push stream.


Consult all teachers

Is it necessary to use an NVIDIA graphics card for my No. 1 computer?  Can I use 7900TXT to reduce costs?

I don’t understand the question. Why would the system you create the scene on affect the performance on the system you’re playing it back on? 

You basically need a NVIDIA card. The 3060 is a quite weak card and I recommend something much more powerful on the system rendering the scene in realtime. At least a 4080, but ideally a 4090.

Hi,

The RTX 3060 is much cheaper than the RX 7900 XT or RX 7900 XTX. I guess you meant RX 7900 XTX for rendering scenes in real time and RTX 3060 for creating the scenes.

The RTX 3060 can be enough for editing scenes. Note, that you can turn off real-time rendering in the Unreal Editor to increase the performance while editing.
However, it’s ideal to have the same specifications for both the editing and rendering computers. This ensures that you get a good idea of performance limitations and the quality of the final rendering.

For final scene rendering, it's advisable to use NVIDIA cards, as @TwentyStudios mentioned, because their top high-end cards greatly outperform AMD's offerings.
