100-140 Question 115
Select 2You are tasked with installing a new 3D rendering application that requires specific hardware resources. The application’s minimum requirements are: a 64-bit processor architecture, 16 GB of RAM, a dedicated GPU with at least 4 GB of VRAM, and 50 GB of free disk space. The system you are working on has the following specifications: a 32-bit processor architecture, 32 GB of RAM, an integrated GPU with 1 GB of VRAM, and 1 TB of free disk space. Which of the following system upgrades are necessary to meet the application’s minimum requirements?
- A
Upgrade the processor to a 64-bit architecture
- B
Increase the RAM to at least 64 GB
- C
Install a dedicated GPU with at least 4 GB of VRAM
- D
Free up additional disk space
- E
No upgrades are required
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C
Explanation
To meet the minimum requirements of the application, the system needs a 64-bit processor and a dedicated GPU with at least 4 GB of VRAM. The RAM and disk space requirements are already met, so no upgrades are necessary in those areas.
- A. Correct.
This is correct. The application requires a 64-bit processor, but the current system has a 32-bit processor. Upgrading to a 64-bit architecture is necessary.
- B. Incorrect.
This is incorrect. The application requires 16 GB of RAM, and the system already has 32 GB, which exceeds the requirement. No RAM upgrade is needed.
- C. Correct.
This is correct. The application requires a dedicated GPU with at least 4 GB of VRAM, but the current system only has an integrated GPU with 1 GB of VRAM. Upgrading to a dedicated GPU is necessary.
- D. Incorrect.
This is incorrect. The application requires 50 GB of free disk space, and the system has 1 TB available, which is more than sufficient. No changes to disk space are needed.
- E. Incorrect.
This is incorrect. The current system does not meet the processor and GPU requirements, so upgrades are necessary.
