The following document describes the features that a PC has to have in order to correctly work with Open Technologies' dental scanners. Open Technologies suggests the purchase of Dell XPS 8920 Desktop, i5 or 17 depending on the scanner s model, as they guarantee full compatibility with its scanners. In case you want to buy a different PC model, hereinafter you will find the minimum requirements that the PC has to have in order to be matched with Open Technologies' scanners. There are also other variables that can influence the PC-scanner compatibility (as USB, drivers, components, place of installation...); for this reason, a check at the purchase is strongly recommended. To grant the best scanner s performances, the Pc must be dedicated to the Scanner and the daily work; as installing other kinds of software could create serious compatibility problems and slow down the work system. Open Technologies is available to check the PC specifications before the purchase.

Minimum Requirements for Open Technologies systems Recommended Systems Our Scanners need to be matched with a Computer with specific requirements. To simplify the choice, Open Technologies recommends two DELL reference systems: Dell XPS 8920 Desktop (with Intel i5) for for Easy and Smart Scanners Dell XPS 8920 Desktop (with Intel i7) for Deluxe, NeWay and Click Scanners, Minimum Requirements Operating System Windows 7 / 8 / 8,1 / 10 (64 bit) CPU Intel Quad Core or better Ram 8Gb Ram or better Minimum required video card * ** Suggested video card * ** NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti or better* NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or better * NVIDIA GeForce GTX 745 or better* NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 or better* NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 or better* * To use Exocad s Partial Framework Module it is compulsory to mount at least a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphic card. **The Video Card has some important additional requirements: Only NVIDIA GeForce cards are supported by the system. The NVIDIA QUADRO series is not supported. The name scheme for the NVIDIA cards is complex (as you can see at this link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/list_of_nvidia_graphics_processing_units ) In order to understand if a card is better than another, you need to check the 'Core Config' column of the table. A card with less than 300:40:30 cores is not supported. Particular attention has to be paid to the appendix of the card name: the GTX 560 Ti is good enough while the GTX 560M is not.
