I’m about to purchase a POP3 plus and am planning to purchase a PC to match the requirements. I’m a bit if a noob so just wanted to make sure I understood correctly before buying some expensive kit.
So am I correct that the POP3 uses RevoScan 6. I’ve seen the PC spec requirements listed in the user manual for the software, but am I correct that there is flexibility in the CPU choice, but the list of compatible GPUs is limited?
I was looking at an Intel i5 14400F which benchmarks higher than the recommended i7 10700 so would this be suitable?
I was also looking at a GeForce RTX 5060 or would it need to be a GeForce RTX 3050? I was saw some posts which said that a good GPU wouldn’t be necessary because the POP3 isn’t a laser scanner.
I7 10th Gen is very slow , get at least i7 12th Gen. You don’t need to much power for scanning but the processing will take forever using i7 10th Gen. Make sure you have at least 32GB of RAM , recomended 64GB
Regarding the GPU get RTX 4060 but not lower than RTX 3060 .
When you want full performance always use recommended system and don’t go for minimal system requirements as you gonna suffer from the lower performance.
Can I take it then, that a 14th generation i5 would work but would ideally be paired with the higher amount of RAM considering it benchmarks higher than the 10th gen i7?
Yes, a 14th Generation i5 (specifically the i5-14600K) is generally faster than a 12th Gen i7 (i7-12700K) in both single-threaded and multi-threaded tasks, despite being a lower tier. The 14th Gen i5 offers roughly 7-12% higher performance with faster architecture, higher clock speeds, and superior efficiency.
