Autocad and Revit

I am buying two new laptops for the office and want to know where I can find the specification requirements for a laptop for staff using Autodesk products as mentioned below

User 1 : AutoCAD LT

User 2 : AutoCAD LT AND Revit LT

Thanks

These are the top results when I plugged AutoCAD LT System Requirements and Revit LT System Requirements into Google as two separate searches.

General recommendations are not to go for the minimum requirements. Go for the best you can reasonably afford. Go for processor speed. Cores don't mean much. RAM and Video Card can be important.

If you could share the magnitude of your projects. We might be able to narrow it down.

@Akunkinga Your HD is too small: 1TB minimum.

Intel Arc Graphics is very low end and ignores the REVITLT recommendations I posted in screenshots earlier.

Thanks. I gave your reccommendations to our IT guy for him to come up with something.

I have never heard of Intel ARC graphics, and am not sure which part of the quote is the hard drive 😀
