System requirements
What your computer needs.
Movyra writes, voices and renders on your own computer, so memory and the graphics chip decide how fast it goes and which AI models you can use.
Mac
Apple silicon shares one pool of memory between the processor and the graphics, so memory is the number to look at.

WindowsComing soon
On a PC the graphics card holds the AI model, so its video memory (VRAM) matters more than its speed. NVIDIA cards work best.

The same hardware as Windows. Use the NVIDIA proprietary driver so the AI models run on the graphics card.

Before you buy
Memory first
The AI models have to fit in memory. A 12 GB graphics card is a better choice for Movyra than a faster card with 8 GB.
Cores for rendering
Rendering draws several frames at once on the processor, so more cores means shorter exports.
Keep space free
Models are downloaded the first time you use them, from under 1 GB up to about 19 GB for the largest.
