Hi! Total newbie on 3d scanning here.

I preordered the pop4 3d scanner and I will have to get a new laptop.

I have 2 differents laptops wiith differents specs.

ultra7 255 hx 64go ram and rtx5070 8gb

Ultra9 275hx 32go ram and Rtx5070ti 12gb

so i would know which one would be better or faster for 3d scanning with the pop4.

I think most of my future scans will be for small to medium items made with cross laser or single laser mode.

I know that the the 2 laptops are above the minimum requirements, but will there be a huge differnce between the 2 for 3d scanning.

Sorry to ask a such idiot question but as I said Iam a total newbie in that area.

Thanks for your replies

Of these two, you should choose the first option, as it has more RAM, or alternatively, purchase additional memory for the second configuration. I don’t think you’ll notice a difference in scanning speed between them, given the other specifications.

thanks for your reply.

So If I understand correctly, the Ram capacity is a more important parameter than the graphic. card spec.

As for the processor it will not make much a difference between these two.

The two configs were around in the same price range but if I need to add more ram for the U9, I will take the U7 version,

thanks.

Hi @Drz34 since you already have good GPU , go for the first one with 64GB , the other have great speed but the amount of RAM is what I would **not** go for in this case.
