If images can help explain your problem, use clear, uncropped screenshots, not phone photos. Summarize your problem in the title, but add additional details- text, images, links- in the post body or in comments. If you link a video, provide a time stamp. Try adding a link to file so helpers can investigate issues you wouldn't know to.

Explain what you've already tried and what went wrong.

I’m veering towards the DELL XPS 17 with the i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD and a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060. I always knew an i7 was the starting point anyway, but obviously you need to build the rest of the spec around this. I’m going to purchase a better spec laptop to do more tests because realistically, if my target audience is serious about creating high quality renders using V-Ray, I need to educate them when it comes to the sufficient spec. I was hoping for between 3-5 but alas, it wasn’t meant to be. I decided to render the same scene using my MacBook Pro i5 with 8GB of RAM and an Intel Iris graphics card. It has a dual Xeon processor (5 years old), and has a NVIDIA graphics card with 64GB of RAM. This scene was rendered in one hour using my custom built PC. So I’m trying to establish a benchmark in terms of render time and hardware requirements. I’m doing A LOT of testing at the minute in preparation for my new 3D courses on the SketchUp Hub which will include photo-real rendering (V-Ray).

Here’s a pretty nice photo-real render I recently created via SketchUp and V-Ray.
