revit with an integrated graphics card - anyone?

[johannabarge]

Does anyone use a PC that has an integrated graphics card instead of a dedicated one? If so, does revit run well on it? I am not doing any large projects, just small residential with some modeling.

Short answer: Probably. Would not feel too different from a mid-end laptop being used as a travel workstation.

You'll feel it if you try to do any degree of materials rendering. If you stick to simplified graphics displays (hidden line, shaded with limited toggles, consistent colors), you should be able to get most of your modelling done. Maybe stick to rendered views only as a quality check or for client productions.

Awesome, I was looking at something like this mini PC. If I do any heavy rendering my architect counterpart will do it on her machine. I just need to be able to draw and do simple rendered views. Thoughts?

Works but how efficient and productive it is depends on what you are doing. On this forum there are lots of in depth discussion on hardware requirements and what is best for what. SOme are very recent (or at least not older than a few months) I suggest you go through them before you make a buy
