Sufficient hardware for Revit 2020?

[Anonymous]

Greetings,

I could use some advice please to determine if my hardware is sufficient for running Revit 2020, small model sizes ~100mb.  I'm on a Surface Pro 4 with docking station to 2 monitors, running Windows 10, 64 bit, 8GB Ram, Intel Core i7-6650U processor and 86GB free of 237GB storage.

If I've missed some other information, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

i wouldn’t recommend 8 gigs anymore especially for revit

minimum at least 16 gigs

Thanks Darren.  Not the answer I was hoping for.  Just to verify, even for models of less than 100mb, would you still recommend 16 gigs?

I have 64gb.  I can't imagine having only 8.  revit with a small 78mb residential house open and revit alone is using 3.5gb of memory.  Between the remainder of the programs I have up and running (outlook, spottily, chrome, bluebeam, and windows and connected programs) im using 22.8gb of my memory.

So yes, i would absolutely go with 16gb of memory min.
