Discussion | What Computer Should I Get?

Topaz Photo General
1

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this… i am looking at getting a new laptop. This are the specs:

AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 465 Processor 2.0GHz (34MB Cache, up to 5.0GHz, 10 cores, 20 Threads); AMD XDNA™ NPU up to 50TOPS

AMD Radeon™ Graphics

Would this be able to run Topaz? I know I have one computer that only has onboard graphics and while it does work it can take 2-3 minutes to process a photo where as my other computer which has a Radeon 4070 takes about 10 seconds to process. I would like to know if this computer will be like my main machine that has the radeion 4070 in terms of speed

Nope.

Topaz requires either Nvidia GPU or Apple Silicon. AMD GPUs are supported… poorly.

Some AMD cards can handle the app, we would need to know however the exact model and how much VRAM it has. Send in those details and we can have a look.

It needs to be 6GB VRAM minimum, 8GB of VRAM or more recommended.
