Hey there,
New member. I just recently built a PC rig, adding to my Apple M1 lineup. I've used Affinity Designer and Photo for about a year on the M1 and ended up getting frustrated with the M1's performance, or lack there of. I didn't set out to build the PC to run Affinity but I wanted that option.
Spec:
Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core
128GB of DDR4 RAM
2TB M.2 SSD
MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 3060 12GB GPU
So far, it runs like garbage. Any load put on the software slows everything down, nothing is smooth. I've adjusted every setting (which, honestly, is pretty lacking) under the performance tab in Designer. No luck. I was really hoping to find a solution.
