[1] Performance typically improves with more cores (or logical processors); however, many systems with large numbers of logical processors have limitations on sustained peak utilization.
[2] GPU must be a CUDA capable card and compatible with NVIDIA OptiX 4.1.0. Based on the release notes for OptiX 4.1.0 and the timing of its release, CUDA capable cards with compute capability between 3.0 and 6.1 should be supported. Contact NVIDIA support for specific recommendations.
