Autocad LT for Mac - supports M2 chip?

[hyM8UPM]

I have a subscription to Autocad LT for macs.  I need to buy a new computer because my current IMac is 12 years old!  So I’m looking at the MacBook Air or MacBook Pro with M2 chip.  I noticed that Autocad says that the program will work with the M series chips.  Does that include M1 and M2?  Does anyone have a preference between Air or Pro?   Thank you!

Yes.

I think that with the same amount of RAM there is no difference for AutoCAD

Thank you for replying.  I was going to buy either model with 8 GB unified memory and 512 GB SSD.  Is that enough to run Autocad LT?  I want to be able to hook up an external monitor as well.

@hyM8UPM ,

I recommend 10-Core GPU and the 16 GB unified memory model.

10-Core GPU and the 8 GB unified memory model will always be on the edge of the required power...

SSD is according to your needs.

Thank you very much for your help!  I will look at those options!
