nVidia K4000M and Revit 2016 working slowly, lagging

martynas92 — Sat, 01 Oct 2016 16:27:36 GMT

So, I bought new work station mostely with purpose to use Revit.
DELL precision M6700
i7-3840QM (2.80GHz)
32 Gb RAM
nVidia quadro K4000M 2Gb
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

but it doesn't matter, because Revit 2015 is working fluently!

On 2016 version I've got this warning message in Options>Graphics (it doesn't pop-up)

Untested environment
We regret that the installed video card 'NVIDIA Quadro K4000M' and driver '9.18.13.3221' have not been tested with the currently installed OS/DirectX version combination.
You may continue to use Hardware Acceleration.
If you experience graphics display issues, you should:
- Turn off Hardware Acceleration; or
- Change your operating system to one tested with Revit

Any solutions, help?
Thanks in advance.

Revit hardware compatibility list shows quadro k4000 works with Revit....NOT k4000m.

You can try to use the k4000 graphics driver that is listed by autodesk and see if that helps.

I take back those word 😄 partially...
Revit is working better after reinstall. I don't know if it was drivers deal. Now I'm running on newest drivers and I don't see difference.
But, once I was working on points cloud. Revit 2016 crashed few times, while 2015 was working perfectly.
So what's the problem? Even with older, suggested drivers 2016 started to work faster, but not as fast as 2015 on same scene.
