Best/Least glitchy/Most smooth Autocad Version
Let me start off by apologizing if there is already a thread started on this topic; I searched and the topics I did find were pertaining to the general consensus of which is "best." Aside from that aspect, I'm looking for the version that is most smooth and least glitchy. I understand this is very subjective and people of different backgrounds will argue otherwise but I myself came from Autocad 2013. Since the recent Windows 10 updates, it has rendered my 2013 version useless, forcing me to upgrade. I jumped right into AutoCad 2018 and to be honest, I don't like it. Not so much the interface but more so the performance; slow cursor movements, lag when selecting/moving objects. Even zooming out and panning are irky at times. When I used 2013, everything was smooth, very little to no glitches (and if so, there were ways around it). Rather than going and trying all the other versions that CAD has to offer, I'm turning to you guys for a professional/personal opinion. From experience, which version has been your favorite?
A few things to keep in mind; I've updated both my computer and AutoCad 2018 to its latest, and I'm currently running a Microsoft Surface book with performance upgrade (16gb, i7, etc.).
Any help is greatly appreciated.

>>>...Microsoft Surface book...<<<
That's a glitchy choice for R2018 (we have three of them), especially if you have not figured out how to get R2018 to use the upgraded video card and not the lame Intel Graphics option. Find out in GRAPHICSCONFIG command.
R2018 in Win10 on desktops with dedicated graphics cards (we have 20+) runs beautifully, performance is no issue as you just, literally, never ever notice anything.

I must agree with @pendean about your MS Surface Book. I find so many students complain about AutoCAD on their MacBooks because it doesn't look & feel like the PC version. I also have a few students with Surface Books and I always get them going well by tweaking Graphicsconfig in ACAD and geeking with the settings in the "tablet with wheels".
CAD is a hungry beast and it won't be wholly satisfied with running on devices that are meant to be mobile. While slick devices can be beaten into submission I would always advise users to be aware of their needs and be keenly aware of their limitation with their chosen devices.
BTW... I can tell you that I have been happy with many versions of ACAD over the years. It's probably easier to list those which I think were giant "belly flops" (AutoCAD r13 and AutoCAD 2007 were my least favs).
Get to know the Surface Book and use the WWW to solve tweaking issues that might help with "Vector Graphics" programs.
Cheers,
Blaine
