Hello,

Hope you are doing well.

As per your question, honestly yes it is very important for an architectural student to have good graphics cards in your computer or laptop as at time of visualization it will operate faster than weaker graphics card. Honestly as per my point of view a quality graphic card will help you speed up and improve your architectural workflow with its RAM memory. This is because if you try to render your visualization, it will all be dedicated to that process.

You can use AMD or NVIDIA graphics for fast and effective experience while working on architectural software.

Hope this information helps you out. Thank you.
