Hi again and thanxs for the help with the last topic. But now i would like to know what kind of hardware you need to be able to work smoothly. I have a crappy 3D card but i do have plans to get a better one. I would just like to know how much RAM, what 3D card and hard disk space specs. you need.

At the moment I'm running on an Athlon 900 with 384mb ram and a GeForce 2 MX. Low poly work is fine, however the only problem is that I can barely play the newer games I want to model for! :P
Should be upgrading soon to a Athlon 2400 with 512mb ram and an ATI 9800. That should keep me going for a little while.
a decent cpu. 512+ram and a 64mb video card i guess.
i have dual 2.2ghz, 512ram (was 1024 but half of it died) and an old geforce3 and i have no problems at all. i think i have an 80gb 7200rpm harddrive.
wouldnt need that much if your doing game models. most of my work is rather hipoly. (and i dont plan to upgrade for a while:))
my old computer was 1.4ghz/256ram and a geforce2ti with a 40gb hardrive and it had no probs on lowpoly work.
