- Graphics cards that support CUDA platform (Nvidia), running on Windows.
- Maxwell and Pascal architectures are supported (for reference you can check this link); it could work on Kepler architecture but it could be unstable and the experience won't be good.
...
- Denoiser is capable of running on CPU or GPU, with Nvidia, AMD and Intel graphics cards; it works with CUDA (Nvidia) and also can work using OpenCL either in GPU (Nvidia, AMD or Intel) or CPU.
- When using GPU, we recommend having a graphics card with at least 2.5GB. This number is actually dependent on frame size, 2.5GB is for 2k pixels square imagery.
- When using Nvidia CUDA, the drivers should support at least CUDA 7.0
- When using AMD, the Catalyst driver should be up to date.
- In the case you get an error message when using CPU about OpenCL ICDs, it will probably be solved by installing one of these packages depending on your graphics card:
- Nvidia: CUDA toolkit
- AMD: AMD toolkit
- Intel: Intel toolkit
- The Denoiser will first try to use CUDA, if it doesn't find a compatible card, it will fallback to OpenCL GPU (usually with AMD and Intel cards) and then . If the image doesn't fit in the graphics card memory, you can then use OpenCL with CPU .

- (which will use RAM memory).
