System requirements for autocad

PC specs.png

Hi All,

I just want to confirm that will my PC be able to support new version of AutoCAD? I shall be using 2D drawings but project/drawings are large. Average drawing file size is 15MB. Kindly advice.

Hi,

 

welcome @Anonymous

 

>> 2D drawings but project/drawings are large

8GB could be too small.

And there is not listed which graphic card your workstation has.

Hi,

 

>> There in no graphics card

If the workstation would not have a graphic card you would not see anything on your screen. 😉

It might be that it's just the internal graphic card which is build in into your Intel i7 (then it's named Intel HD graphics) and that is not a graphic card designed to work with CAD systems.

 

Sorry, - alfred -

Pardon. I though external.

Display Adapter is Intel(R) HD Graphics 630.

Hi,

 

>> Display Adapter is Intel(R) HD Graphics 630.

As I wrote, Intel HD is not built to do a great job with CAD systems.

It will be better performing as well as more stable if you use a graphic card from nVidia or AMD, most important: with dedicated memory.
