General recommendations** **Important:** Laptop graphics cards have a performance ceiling that can be approximately 40% less than a similar tier model engineered for a desktop workstation. For example, a desktop GeForce RTX 5090 has a PassMark baseline of about [38,946](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+5090&id=5725). In comparison, an RTX 5090 Laptop GPU registers a PassMark of about [28,283.](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+5090+Laptop+GPU&id=5754) The first step in choosing a laptop for Lumion is to determine the specifications needed depending on your *Project* requirements, along with other criteria such as mobility.  **Note:** there are no changes in hardware requirements for Lumion 2026 from those for Lumion 2025-2023. This article was prepared during 2026 for Lumion 2026.  We will be updating it for more recent laptop releases by the manufacturers soon. In the meantime, this guide is still very relevant. - **Knowledge Base:** [How do you Determine the 'Complexity' of your Projects](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/4407335206418.json?hsLang=en-us) Please refer to our guide on system requirements for Lumion: - **Lumion website:** [Lumion System Requirements](https://lumion.com/requirements.html) And web site guide: - **Blog Article:** [Lumion computer advice for faster 3D rendering](https://lumion.com/blog/lumion-computer-advice-for-faster-3d-rendering.html)   **1.1: Graphics card** #### **High-end Requirements: 16GB to 24GB+ VRAM** Examples of High-performance Laptop GPUs that are capable of handling *High-end* *Projects*: - **RTX 5090 Laptop GPU (24GB GDDR7)** - **RTX 5080 Laptop GPU (16GB GDDR7)** - **RTX 4090 Laptop GPU (16GB GDDR6)** - **RTX 5000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU (16GB GDDR6)** #### **Recommended Requirements: 12GB+** Examples of other High-performance laptop GPUs that meet the *Recommended* requirements: - **RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU (12GB)** - **RTX 4080 Laptop GPU (12GB)** - **RTX 4000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU (16GB)** - **Radeon RX 7900M Laptop GPU (16GB)** Examples of mid-range laptop GPUs that come very close to the *Recommended* requirements:  - **RTX 5070 Laptop GPU (12GB)** - **RTX 4070 Laptop GPU (8GB)** - **RTX 4060 Laptop GPU (8GB)** - **Radeon RX 7800M / 7600M XT (8GB)** #### **Minimum Requirements: 6GB to 8GB VRAM** Examples of low-end laptop GPUs that meet the *Minimum* requirements: - **RTX 5050 Laptop GPU (6GB)** - **RTX 4050 Laptop GPU (6GB)** - **RTX 3060 Laptop GPU (6GB)** - **RTX A2000 / A3000 Laptop GPU (6GB)** **1.2: System memory** - High-end requirements: **64GB+ DDR5 RAM** - Recommended requirements: **32GB+ DDR5 RAM** - Minimum requirements: **16GB+** **1.3: Screen resolution** - **1920x1080** pixels to ensure the best possible performance in *Lumion*. - Displays with a higher resolution will have a significant negative impact on the performance of Lumion. - If you are planning on using a 4K resolution screen (3840x2160) you will need a graphics card from the High-end Requirements section for optimal performance.  Alternatively, please consider setting the screen resolution to 1920x1080 while using Lumion - or selecting a lower *Editor Resolution* on the *Settings* screen in Lumion. **1.4: Raytracing** Modern versions of Lumion feature an optimized, hardware-accelerated **Raytracing** pipeline. Activating this feature requires an architectural GPU setup featuring dedicated silicon RT cores. ![night\_light\_5.jpg](https://support.lumion.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/12614092176412_1753907377662-2.jpg) ![EVGA - Articles - RTX.

Note that this is an optional feature. It's still possible to use Lumion 2026 even if your graphics card does not support Raytracing, you just won't be able to make use of this *Effect*.   **2. Performance Levels for Laptops:** When considering a laptop, please check the PassMark for the graphics card at [PassMark Software: High End Video Card Chart](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html).  And see our notes in 1. General recommendations (above). Here is a partial list of the highest-performing graphics cards for laptops (according to their [PassMark score](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html) as of June, 2026).  The PassMark will change but the general order of performance may still be the same.   Laptop GPU Performance Chart **Card:** **PassMark:** **Meets requirements:**  [GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+5090+Laptop+GPU&id=5754) 28,283 High-end  [GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+4090+Laptop+GPU&id=4737) 28364 High-end  [GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+5080+Laptop+GPU&id=6099)   26340  High-end [GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+4080+Laptop+GPU&id=4736) 26159 Recommended [RTX 5000 ADA Generation Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=RTX+A5000+Laptop+GPU&id=4416) 24440 Recommended  [GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+5070+Ti+Laptop+GPU&id=6216)   22528   Recommended [GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+4070+Laptop+GPU&id=4756) 19,645 Recommended  [GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+3080+Ti+Laptop+GPU&id=4491) 20198 Recommended [Radeon RX 6850M XT\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=Radeon+RX+6850M+XT&id=4574) 18330 Recommended [GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+3070+Ti+Laptop+GPU&id=4497) 18215 Recommended [GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+4060+Laptop+GPU&id=4752) 17943 Recommended [RTX A4500 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=RTX+A4500+Laptop+GPU&id=4565) 17603 Recommended [RTX A5500 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=RTX+A5500+Laptop+GPU&id=4562)  17435 Recommended [GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+3080+Laptop+GPU&id=4332) 16540 Recommended [RTX A5000 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=RTX+A5000+Laptop+GPU&id=4416) 15866 Recommended [Radeon RX 6800S\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=Radeon+RX+6800S&id=4542) 15565 Recommended [GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+3070+Laptop+GPU&id=4331) 15527  Minimum Baseline (Top) [RTX A4000 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=RTX+A4000+Laptop+GPU&id=4421) 15374  Minimum Baseline (Top)  [GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU\*](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+RTX+3060+Laptop+GPU&id=4342)  13120 Minimum Baseline *\*Supports Raytracing* Refer to [PassMarks](https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html) for other laptop graphics cards, not on this list.   **3. Laptop product suggestions:** These suggestions were updated on June 2026. Some laptops can be configured with different components.  For example, if there is 32GB of *System Memory* (RAM) you might be able to increase it to 64GB.  See a retailer's website near you. Some retailers such as ASUS, also have some models that can be configured for the graphics card.    ![Pc\_retailer\_logos.png](https://support.lumion.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/12614098779804_1753907379398-2.png) **3.1: High-End options:** -
