¹ RobotStudio will not benefit from the additional features of so-called ‘Professional’ or ‘Workstation’

graphics cards. The price level of these are at a much higher range than gaming graphics cards with

comparable performance. High-end gaming PCs are very suitable for offline programming with

RobotStudio. Such a PC will provide good performance for a limited budget.
