Hello
Welcome to the Autodesk/AutoCAD Forums !
With 3D medium models, 8 Gb is not enough !
But a few other ideas :
1) Please open your DWG in RECOVER Mode
2) PURGE + PURGE ...
3) Go back to Model Space if necessary
4) CANNOSCALE = 1:1
5) SCALELISTEDIT and erase all posible Scales except the "famous" 1:1
6) ReSave the DWG ...
7) Have you installed the SP1 for ACAD 2014 ?
😎 Which graphic card ?
If ATI or NVidia, have you installed the latest driver ?
Reboot ...
Now close all unnecessary Windows Application ... Kill all unnecessary Windows Tasks ... ONLY ACAD.exe will run ...
Relaunch ACAD ... ReTest ...
Waiting ...

Are you using xrefs?
Same question but with blocks. Between XREFs and blocks its possible to greatly reduce the size of a model.
