Good evening,

I am looking for a computer that I want to use to use Revit.
Are these parameters according to the requirements?

 

Specifications:
Processor: Intel Core i7-8700
Working memory (ram): 32 GB
Video Card: GeForce GTX 1070 (8GB)
NVMe M.2 SSD: 1000GB (1TB)
HDD: 1000GB (1TB)

 

Thank you !!!

Hello,

 

It seems to be OK, but it also depends on the average size of your files.

The specifications you listed appear to meet or exceed the minimum system requirements for using Revit.

  • Processor: Intel Core i7-8700 is a 6-core, 12-thread processor that is more than enough for running Revit.
  • Working memory (RAM): 32GB of RAM is more than enough to run Revit and other programs simultaneously.
  • Video Card: GeForce GTX 1070 (8GB) is a powerful video card that should be able to handle the graphics demands of Revit.
  • NVMe M.2 SSD: 1000GB (1TB) is a fast storage solution that will help Revit load and save files quickly.
  • HDD: 1000GB (1TB) is a large storage capacity that will give you plenty of space to store your project files and other data.

The above-mentioned specifications should be more than enough to run Revit smoothly, but the performance may be affected by the number of models, the size of the models, the number of concurrent users, and so on.

You may also want to consider upgrading to a 64-bit operating system and make sure that you have the latest graphics card driver installed, as well as the latest version of Revit.

In general, the above-listed specs are more than enough for running Revit efficiently, but ultimately, you should always consult the official recommended requirements from Autodesk to ensure your computer meets the needs of your workflow.

I'd get rid of the HDD and use NVME SSD only. Every 15 minutes the save-reminder shows sup, you will be thankful to not have an HDD. 

 

If you ever upgrade, get CPU with very good single-thread performance. Very high single-core speed, but doesn't need to have very many cores. Nowadays the CPU have 6-8 cores easily, and for Revit alone there is no need to go to 12, or 16 cores (while sacrificing some single-core performance). 

Revit Version: R2026.4.2
Hardware: i9 14900K, 64GB, Nvidia RTX 2000 Ada 16GB
Add-ins: ElumTools; Ripple-HVAC; ElectroBIM; Qbitec
