Hi,

Do we need a powerful graphics card for cache tile creation or only more cpu cores?

Are you creating traditional or vector tile cache?

Traditional tile cache. (from raster)

Cool - no graphics card not required.  Would be good if you can put source data on one drive and burn to another.  Read one, write the other.  Helps with I/O.  CPU counts as well.  Don't burn on production, unless it's out of hours and you know it will complete in time (before next day).
