Just picked up sketchup after a couple years off. Using Sketchup 2025. Why do my downloads render like this? Has this software outgrown my hardware? NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2 GB
thx!
Share the .skp file so we can see what you are working with.
That is an old graphics card. First released in 2012. It could be.

Yes it’s an old machine Mac Pro (Mid 2012) running OS Monterey.
thx for looking at it.
There’s no distortion on my computer although when I opened your file the camera was at a great distance.
See what happens if you open it from here.

I don’t use a Mac but I wonder if you are trying to use the new graphics engine in SketchUp that might not be supported by your Mac. Switching to the “Classic” engine in Preferences might help.
Yes i think you’re right. It renders better in classic but shows all the dotted draw lines now.
Never mind i forgot i have hidden geometry on. Works perfect not. thx!
