Buying a new Laptop

[Anonymous]

I am looking to by a new laptop and want to see if it would be compatible with AutoCAD Architecture 2018.

I do both 2d and 3d work as well as renderings. Attached is what I am looking to buy. Thank you

Hi @Anonymous,

Welcome to the Autodesk Community! Thank you for posting your question here.

You'll want to make sure that the machine you get meets or exceeds the system requirements for AutoCAD Architecture 2018.

You'll also want to make sure the graphics card is certified for use with AutoCAD 2018 products on the version of the Windows operating system you'll be installing.

You can check all of this using the following resources:

• System Requirements for AutoCAD Architecture 2018 (be sure to review the additional 3D / large dataset requirements at the bottom)
• Autodesk Certified Hardware Lookup (to check your graphics card)
