Does SH3D feature CUDA cores?

Hello,

Does SH3D feature CUDA cores? Or is SH3D CPU based only?

Best regards

Here is the answer I got from Emmanuel when I asked almost the same question: Where does SH3D use the graphics card?

I recently tested the same SH3D project on the 3 laptops we have at home.
The scenes are exactly the same and the camera is positioned identically.
The results :
3D photo rendering - Laptop time
Settings: Photo: 2400 x 1211 px
No ceiling lights (only the spotlights (x18) I placed)
Quality: Max
Rendering : Yafaray
On laptop I5-8500H 4 cores - GC: NVidia GTX1050 - RAM: 32 Gb - rendering in 31'51" (This is the pc I'm working on...)
On laptop I7-11390H 4 cores - CG : None - RAM : 16GB - rendering in 20'51"
On laptop I7-10875H 8 cores - GC: Nvidia RTX3070 - RAM: 64 Gb - rendering in 13'20"

I'll choose my next computer based on its number of cores, with just the right amount of graphics card.

OK, thank you very much for all answers.
