Workstations for Resolume
Resolume Avenue and Arena do not document gains from extra GPUs or cores, so we offer two single-GPU machines well above Resolume’s recommended spec: an Electron, and a Photon for touring with a live input option.
What matters for Resolume
- One strong NVIDIA GPU, above Resolume’s recommended RTX 4070
- Fast M.2 SSD storage for your clips
- Capture cards Resolume supports natively, from Blackmagic, Datapath and AJA
Resolume’s recommended spec is Windows 11, a 6-core Intel i7 at 3.7GHz, an NVIDIA RTX 4070, 16GB of memory and an M.2 SSD. The minimum is Windows 10, an NVIDIA or AMD GPU and 8GB of memory (Resolume tech specs). Resolume does not document gains from extra GPUs or more cores, so both configurations use one GPU and the ladder stops at two tiers.
Standard is an Electron with the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 32GB, a Ryzen 9 9950X3D and 128GB of memory, well above the recommended spec. Heavy moves to a Photon with the NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 48GB for touring VJ work, with the option of a Blackmagic Intensity Pro 4K for live input. Resolume supports Blackmagic, Datapath and AJA capture devices natively (Resolume live inputs), and Blackmagic says Resolume works with all DeckLink products, including SMPTE timecode sync in Arena (Blackmagic DeckLink software).

Frequently asked questions
Resolume does not document gains from extra GPUs or more cores (Resolume tech specs), so we recommend one strong GPU rather than a larger machine.
Resolume supports Blackmagic, Datapath and AJA devices natively (Resolume live inputs). Blackmagic says Resolume works with all DeckLink products, including SMPTE timecode sync in Arena (Blackmagic DeckLink software).
No. Resolume’s minimum spec accepts NVIDIA or AMD, and its recommended spec names an NVIDIA RTX 4070 (Resolume tech specs). Both configurations here use NVIDIA cards above that.
Standard is well above Resolume’s recommended spec for studio work and fixed installs. Heavy moves to the Photon with the NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 48GB, raising GPU memory from 32GB to 48GB, for touring rigs and shows with live input.
Yes. Press Customise and the configurator opens with this build already selected. You can change any part except the chassis, such as more storage or more memory, and the price updates as you go.
