I'm a Noob!!!!

[Kerry Nova]

Hi, guys.
I'm Riot.
I've been using DAZ for a few years now.
I started with 4.11 and then upgraded to 4.15.
I used to have a very old PC and I was never able to render in Iray,
so I became pretty familiar with 3Delight.

Today I got a new PC and I would like to learn how to render in Iray.
I know my PC is still limited. since I only have a Ryzen 7 5700G
(if you don't know, it is an AMD processor with integrated Radeon graphics)
but I have no graphics card.
Maybe in about 6 months I can afford a RTX 3060.

Anyway.
Everytime I had to download DAZ I used the DIM (Download Manager)
I have never used the DC (DAZ Central)
Today I tried the DC but it was taking forever (when it should take a few minutes)
so I aborted and downloaded the good old DIM.
This time it was a bit weird though.
I got the DAZ 4.21 but the only content I got was the Genesis 8 female and male starter packs.

So, I'm a bit confused.
I'm actually feeling pretty much like a DAZ Noob, even when I have a like a 7 year experience.

If you have any suggestions, recommendations and/or advice, I'm all ears.

Thanks

Unfortunately you won't be able to render in Iray at a useable speed with an integrated GPU.

Yes. You can render with that processor. Portraits with small background props. Or still life images with small background. Or hdri backgrounds. The rooms inside render with low lights very slow with the processor. I was rendering for years with similar intel processor like your AMD. So it's not so big problem if you have time and enough ram.

You need online account for installing default resources in the install manager.
