Hi,
I remember seeing a table that lists the recommended amount of RAM in one column and the assembly size (e.g: 500 parts, 10000parts, etc) in another column. But now I can no longer find it. Does anyone have a link to it?
Regards
Ilyas

Hello from France
I am not at all an Inventor specialist !
But I know some "big" French users of Inventor 201X ...
They are running on fast PCs with 24 Gb (more often 32 Gb) Ram
*** Which Processor ? *** ONLY ONE Processor : it's enough !
- Core i7 (4 Cores/8 Threads) Type 3770/3770K (3.4-3.9 Ghz) 8 Mo cache
- XEON (4 Cores/8 Threads) E3 v3 1275 … E5-1620 v2
- XEON (6 Cores/12 Threads) E5-1650 v2 (600$) / etc
And most often with NVidia Quadro ... nothing less than a K2000 ... 2 Gb Ram or MORE !
And fast HD : SSD if possible ...

take any table with a pinch of salt as there's far more to consider than just the number of parts in an assembly.
Complex shapes with lots of surfaces will eat up ram quicker than lots of instances of a simple rectangular extrusion. In the same way that embossing lots of text on a face will be more of a resource hog than a single texture decal; but, I could also imagine lots of high resolution textures would start to eat ram (or at least vram).
e.g. I work with hand-held plastic moulded objects - the complex surface-heavy plastic parts are far more of a resource hog than the "simple" parts inside them and I'm sure I've cleared the 8gb mark with under 500 components in the past.

^^ yep.. Working with an assembly now.. 2620 occurrences (157 open documents) and Inventor is using a little over 4G of ram.
