It's worth the time and money!</P> Sun, 05 May 2024 12:37:58 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/gpu-rendering-support/m-p/12753630#M42271 kendrickxy 2024-05-05T12:37:58Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/gpu-rendering-support/m-p/13143172#M42272 <P>Please! It is so frustrating waiting 2-5 minutes for renders that my RTX 4080 could crank out in a fraction of a second.&nbsp;</P> Mon, 11 Nov 2024 11:41:22 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/gpu-rendering-support/m-p/13143172#M42272 saccade 2024-11-11T11:41:22Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/gpu-rendering-support/m-p/13379386#M42273 <P>I second this. Even when my CPU is Good (Ryzen 7 5800X), I have a Good GPU RTX. Is a waste of resources not to use GPU for rendering.</P> Wed, 19 Mar 2025 13:41:24 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/gpu-rendering-support/m-p/13379386#M42273 ThePunisher81 2025-03-19T13:41:24Z
