Sorry I see it now. I need to be on the Junction3D site and not the Reify3D site.

From the FAQ

5. Are there any minimum recommended requirements for the PC?
Windows 7 or higher, Intel i3, 4gb Ram, HDMI output, Intel 4000 graphics or higher. If you are not sure if your existing PC, or the new one that you're planning on purchasing, will work, please contact us.

Just wondering how are people getting by on computers with only 4 GB of ram? Some of the prints I do has CW pulling almost 11 GB of RAM down

My B9 laptop has only 4GB RAM and works just fine. My Solus isn't up and running yet as I'm waiting for my computer to arrive. The first one I ordered that didn't have the right video card(Intel 3000) I'm going to keep and am giving to my wife. She's on Facebook and Pinterest for hours looking at a small Iphone 5 screen. To repeat to Monger and Reify, if I go to the Reify website the FAQ has no computer specs, but the Junction 3D site does. Cheers to all and wishing all a great holiday season. :mrgreen:

Right now I'm printing just one piece on XY 42 that's 111mb

My task manager says CW is using 4300 MB of ram for just that
