D5 Too slow after update

amr.gad · May 30, 2025, 2:46am

**D5 Render Version:**2.7
**Graphics Card:**RTX 3060 (Laptop)
**Driver Version:**Latest Update
**Issue Description:**Too slow, Frame Rate is too low,

I used to have D5 for a long time; however, since the update it is too slow and cannot use it for even small scenes with no lighting, no furniture, no 3D assets. it does not work smooth however I approach it.

Any idea what may cause the issue?
Thank you

Hi @amr.gad

So you’re using D5 Render Version 2.7 still? Can you also send us the following images:

So, I have tried a few things i think i should mention.

I tried to re install older versions (I installed every version back to 2.3) and still the software is not usable. Now upgraded to 2.10. I started observing decline in performance a couple of months ago so I thought it was my graphics card vs the updates or something.

Attached are the data asked for.

@Clov is there any solution?
Thank you in advance.

[Update] Based on the screenshot that you have provided, if it was opened with a D5 Render file, then it seems that your device is utilizing your iGPU (Intel) instead of your dedicated GPU (RTX). D5 needs to utilize the RTX card otherwise, you may run into some performance issues.

There are ways to address this:

You may want to try to disable your iGPU

Another option is to set D5 to use RTX GPU in NVIDIA Settings.
