: To run V-Ray 6 with SketchUp 2023, you generally need Windows 10/11 or macOS 10.15+, at least 8GB of RAM (16GB+ recommended), and an NVIDIA Maxwell or later GPU for CUDA/RTX acceleration. Studio Ercra 3dsMax Vs Sketchup with V-ray - Studio Ercra

SketchUp 2023 runs more efficiently with V-Ray's optimized engine, especially on modern hardware.

: V-Ray 6 includes native support for Apple M1/M2 chips, significantly improving UI responsiveness and rendering speed for Mac users.

: Using the V-Ray GPU engine, users can experience rendering speeds dozens of times faster than CPU alone. This is ideal for real-time feedback during the design process.

The combination of represents a high-water mark for architectural visualization, blending SketchUp's intuitive modeling with the photorealistic power of V-Ray 6. This update specifically bridges the gap between fast conceptual design and high-end production, offering tools that handle everything from real-time exploration to cinematic final frames. Key Features and Updates in V-Ray 6 for SketchUp 2023

: You can now "stamp" textures onto surfaces (like road markings or wall stains) without manually adjusting UV maps. The latest hotfixes added a "Bend" function for applying decals to curved surfaces like cylinders. Performance and Hardware Compatibility
