What Hardware Does KeyShot Need – Get Maximum Performance

For a Smooth 3D Rendering Experience

KeyShot is designed to run quickly on both basic hardware configurations as well as high-performance systems.

Here are the minimum recommendations and system requirements for the latest version of KeyShot to ensure a smooth start for you.

Minimum Requirements

  • 64-bit platform
  • 4GB RAM
  • Quad-core CPU
  • OpenGL 2.0 capable system
  • Intel or AMD 64-bit processor with SSE4.1 or higher
  • Resolution 1920 x 1080 or higher
  • Internet connection (for product activation)

[1] KeyShot utilises all available CPU cores. More CPU cores/threads will result in faster rendering times.
[2] While KeyShot does not require a GPU for rendering, certain UI elements in KeyShot need a GPU with OpenGL 2.0 support or higher.

System Requirements
  • Windows 10 or 11
  • Windows Server 2019
    or later
System Requirements
  • macOS 11.7 BigSur or later
