GPU used for just depth mapping?

Hey everyone,

I am thinking of getting a dedicated machine to run RC.. my main machine I use is Linux ubuntu and RC is the ONLY software I have that does not have a Linux version!  Please, Unreal, make a Linux version of RC!

Main question is... It's my understanding that RC really uses a GPU only for the depth map phase of the pipeline... is this something that would change in the future?  I currently run it on a AMD ThreadRipper with 24 cores @ 3 Ghz using a NVIDIA RTX 2070 with 128 gig ram...


Would it be best to max out the CPU and not go too nuts on the GPU?  The high end GPU's are more expensive then the entire rest of the computer!

Thanks
Harry

  Hi Harry,

  as you wrote, GPU - CUDA is used for depth map calculation and in texturing for preprocessing model.

  There are no info about future plans regarding this issue.
