Inventor 2017 on Asus ZenBook 14 UX433FN?

Anonymous — Mon, 17 Dec 2018 18:59:41 GMT

Hello,

Does someone know if Inventor 2017 will run on an Asus ZenBook 14 UX433FN?
I know it is not a perfect combination, but I want a lightweight computer for different reasons.

Specification for the laptop mentioned above is:
- 16 GB RAM
- Intel Core i7 8565U

- Graphic card: GeForce MX150 with 2 GB VRAM (GDDR5)

The processor will normally work with 1,8 GHz (quad core) but can operate with up to 4 GHz periodically, if I understood the seller correct.

Best regards

Urban

It should run reasonably with small (<500 parts) assembly.

It will be an allright system but will not be amazing as the CPU is a huge limit and the GPU may cause problems depending on textures and shadows used, the CPU speed ideally needs to be higher?

What is your use case?

8th Gen 4 core i7 4.60GHz Turbo a huge limit?

Which CPU is not a limit?

You cannot rely on the turbo as it depends on cooling solution and environment, 1.8gHz is the only figure guarenteed to run across all cores but turbo generally only acts on one which is the huge limit.

Checkout intel arc: https://ark.intel.com/products/series/122593/8th-Generation-Intel-Core-i7-Processors#@mobile

Ideally you want atleast 3gHz preferably closer to 4 for optimal performance.
