HP Workstation 8760W ssd or standard disk?

[gunveg]

Can someone tell me what to buy, I don't want any lagging with big assembly files, even in presentation in realistic view.

My company goes HP so I`m stucked to that, some experiences or good advices?

Are your working on files locally or on a network drive?

Not that it really matters... SSD is the way to go.

[gunveg]

Thanx, its only localy.

But what about the rest, this is standard:

Intel® Core™ i7-2630QM (2,00 GHz, 6 MB L3-cache)

8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 SDRAM

NVIDIA Quadro 3000M med 2 GB dedicated GDDR5

Should i upgrade ram to 12 or 16GB, is it nessecary?

Anyting else you would change?

How large are your assembly files? That's only a rough guide, because what also counts is the complexity of the part files (more faces, larger files).

[gunveg]

If this tells u anything

Example:

I often use a standard part wich is a block/brick in dimensions 156x156x230mm wich is sawed in 700 thin wafers (120my each)

Its not a big part file but its a lot of graffics to handle there.. And this part assembled with maby 500 to a 1000 other parts i get a problem..

Then each wafer has 6 sides(faces)? How are these constrained. Are the wafers a pattern?

Your graphics card (2GB) should be able to handle this and 500-1000 parts IF they are not all constrained at the top level of the assembly.

[gunveg]

Its a pattern yes, but not all constrained at the top level of the assembly.

But ok, if you say its enough with 2gb card and the rest of the spec can handle a smooth complicated presentation I got the answer to it.

Do you now anything of the recommendation in the 2013 version? I got the 2012 with sub today. Do I need to upgrade even more when I get 2013?

A 2g processor is way too slow imo
