Hello @Anonymous,

Autodesk does not recommend any specific hardware, if it meets the requirements it should be fine.

As long as the system meets the minimum requirements to run the software, but if you plan on creating heavy project files using the software you may want to consider looking at the recommended requirements or go higher than that. 

You can speak to someone at Apple to have them help you understand your options and let them know what you plan to run on the computer for better feedback. 

Thank you for posting.

To be honest, I am not convinced about the answer you gave me just in case of geraphic requirement; the cpu and the other requirements I got that but the macbook that I want to buy has AMD Radeon 455 - 2 GB does it suitable for Revit?
