Computers I Recommend For Rendering (Not Apple)
Overview
I generally do not recommend Apple laptops for 3D design and rendering.
The main reason I recommend using windows computers with an NVIDIA graphics card is that the Real Time Ray Tracing feature in Chief Architect and D5 Render software only work windows.
I use D5 Render software for my photorealistic renderings. D5 Render requires a Windows computer with a newer NVIDIA graphics card.
If you are committed to Mac, you can still create very good renderings using Chief Architect and Enscape software. I just think that D5 Render software is the best on market.
Generally speaking you want a windows gaming computer.
Laptops
I recommend Lenovo Legion Laptops and MSI laptops. Get the most expensive NVIDIA graphics card you can afford. The higher the number (ie: RTX 4080, 4090, 5080, 5090) the better the card is.

Desktops
If you are looking for maximum speed when creating renderings a desktop computer will give you power power due to the better graphics cards. I like the ‘North’ case, so I personally get my desktops from Maingear.
