Had to get a new computer monitor

My computer is a Photogrammetry rig as well.

Two crazy expensive video card, i9 16 core CPU, 256 Gig of RAM, and two 2tb M.2 drives and 14 TB of RAID 5 all built in.

We do aerial photography, and I process our projects. Personally I have found on most projects the RAM is more critical than the video card. It is interesting to watch the utilization percentages of the computer components. The CPU is sometimes at 100% the video use rarely gets to 20% and I have seen the memory useage get up to 195 gig.

The bigger the area in square miles is more images and the more computer HP it takes.

i7 8-core, 32GB RAM, 2080 super, 250GB SSD primary which needs to be larger, 8T HD of photo scenery (and a few others for multiple backup etc).
All to run a buggy 14yo flight sim game where the Fix:Fly ratio is 20:1.
(yeah I dove in the shallow end)

Yeah depends on the tool.

Most suites require a CUDA capable card for depth maps.

IIRC agisoft and pix are the only major players that will run without one.

With all of that capability you Boyz are gona be wearin your Johnnys down to a nub with all the porono you are gona be watchin.

I can sse it now, you will be sitting back in your easy chair with your control stick in your hand flippin through the channels.

Skyline and Pix4d are most of our processing.
