Fusion 360 on Lenovo X1 Yoga Gen 6

christophjpaulus — Mon, 15 Mar 2021 20:21:49 GMT

Would fusion 360 run on

Processor: i7-1165G7
Windows 10 Pro (64 Bit)
RAM 32 GB LPDDR4X 4266MHz Gelötet
2 TB SSD, M.2 2280, PCIe 4.0, NVMe, OPAL 2.0-fähig, TLC
14.0" WQUXGA (3840x2400)
Integrierte Intel Iris Xe graphic card

with an acceptable frame rate? I would be fine to "Limit the effects to optimize the performance" via the Graphics statistics. I just want to be able to work on the go. What for a framerate would you expect (with and without limiting the effects)?

Thanks, Christoph

Hi @christophjpaulus,

Fusion 360 is mostly single-threaded and not GPU Compute Accelerated so the CPU is king here. As such the CPU looks to be fine (4.7 Turbo speed is pretty decent, assuming it could get enough power and cooling). RAM and storage are more than enough.

My main concern is with the integrated GPU as whilst Fusion isn't GPU accelerated but does need the VRAM, which for Xe gets shared with system RAM.

Ultimately it depends how big and complex the models you want to work on are.
