What are the ideal specs of a laptop for Lumion, Revit, and 3ds Max?
Lumion:Minimum System RequirementsGraphics card: Minimum 2,000 PassMark points, 2GB memory or more and compatible with DirectX 11 or later. Click here to see how to select a graphics card for Lumion.OS: 64-bit Windows 10, 8.1, 7 Sp1 or Vista SP2CPU: As high a GHz value as possible, ideally 3.0+ GHz. Less than 4.0 GHz may act as a bottleneck for fast graphics cards such as the GTX 1080 and Titan X (Pascal). More cores than 4 will not make a difference.System memory: 8GB (for simple scenes) with as high a MHz value as possible.Monitor resolution: Minimum 1600x1080 pixels.Hard drive: 20GB of disk spaceRevit: Will run on basically anything, fast CPU recommendedSingle- or Multi-Core Intel® Pentium®, Xeon®, or i-Series processor or AMD® equivalent with SSE2 technology. Highest affordable CPU speed rating recommended.3DS MAX: Will also run on basically anything. This and Revit are similar Autodesk products.Conclusion:For sure get a 3.0GHz+ CPU, quad core preferable, and a dedicated graphics card with a minimum 2GB vidRAM. Essentially anything with a GTX 940M or better will work, though I strongly recommend using a laptop with a GTX 1050 or better. I run Inventor Pro and Fusion 360 on my laptop just fine with an i5-6300HQ (3.2GHz quad core) and a GTX 940M 4GB but the performance is crap compared to any desktop with a proper gaming or workstation GPU. Most of my CAD work is done on my gaming PC with an i5–4690K OC to 4.2GHz and an R9 380X 4GB card, slightly faster than a GTX 1050Ti.Any modern gaming laptop over $1200 should be suitable, just make sure that the CPU ends in HQ and not U since the U variants are all dual cores with hyperthreading. The newer ones will have i5–7300HQ at 3.5GHz 4 core/4 thread or i7–7700HQ 4 core/8 thread CPUs at 3.5 and 3.8GHz respectively. They will generally have a GTX 1050, 1050Ti, or GTX 1060 graphics cards with 2GB, 2GB/4GB, or 3GB/6GB of vidRAM respectively. Plenty of power for your needs.Also note: the GTX 1050Ti is about 75–85% slower and only 30% cheaper than a GTX 1060, so I would say if you can afford the 1060 go for it. You won’t be disappointed.

Can we just admit that the 3DS has better specs then the PS Vita, which is why it gets the games?
@Kara Winters If you didn't read the 3DS specs I posted about it having a 4-core 1 GHz CPU (Nintendo ARM11) that has an advantage over all other 4-core 1 GHz CPUs (as long as ARM11 is only in a Nintendo electronic) and how the PICA200 GPU is 400 MHz max clock that drains almost no battery power when clock at 400 MHz and does 160 million polygons so developers can push as much as 156 to 158 million polygons with a minimum of 50 shader cores which gives much more beauty to the game, then just say so. And 240p graphics on the best 128 MB RAM does way more open world then 566p graphics on the worse 512 MB RAM.
Are these good computer specs for video editing ?
CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 AM3 CPU Cooler: Standard CPU heatsink & fan Included Motherboard: Foxconn 6100M61-PMV (6x USB2.0, Onboard GeForce video) Included Memory: 4GB DDR2 800mhz (2x 2GB) Included Hard Drives: 500GB S-ATAII 3.0Gb/s Included Optical Drive: 22x DVD±RW DL S-ATA Included Graphics card: Onboard Video Included Sound card: Onboard 5.1 Audio Included Operating System: No Operating System - I will install my own Included PSU: 400W Included Case: EZCool H601 are these good for editing hd and non hd video in sony vegas, ae and 3ds max? also i could upgrade the processor to a AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition if i need to. oh and do you need a good graphics card for video editing, does it even make a diference?. any help would be much appreciated! :) i will be editing video from my sony dcr hc51e camcorder and from my capture card ill either install win 7 or xp
Specifications for laptop - using for Adobe CS6?
Boyfriend is a game design student about to get a laptop, working with stuff such as Photoshop, Illustrator, 3ds Max Studio, etc. Will these specs work for all that? If not, what should be the baseline? 500GB hard drive 4GB RAM Intel Celeron -- 2.39Ghz Intel HD Graphics card
What specs sould i look for in a laptop for 3d modeling?
Im thinking on a 12gb laptop, but thats as much as i know, i wanna use cad programs so i need it not to crash. Programs such as autocad, autodesk inventor and 3ds max for rendering. Also, someone told me to look for one with nvidia card. So far im considering TOSHIBA SATELLITE S55-A5169 Intel® Core™ i7-4700MQ Processor Windows 8.1 12GB DDR3L 1600MHz memory (max 16GB) 1.0TB (5400 RPM, Serial ATA) 2GB DDR3 NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 740M with NVIDIA® Optimus™ technology Is it good? what about brands?
What is the required specs for a PC that a graphic designer will use? The software to be used are AutoCAD, Revit, 3D Studio Max, SketchUp, Photoshop, Illustrator, Adobe Pro.
Your question is rather confusing because CAD, Revit and 3D studio max are not graphic designer programs. In any case what you describe is perhaps a pc with high graphic capabilities and rendering capacity. Depending on your budget and because of the many possibilities here I would suggest you look for a mid range gaming pc try this website, they’re good providers and as far as I’m concerned they haven’t failed me before:Gaming Laptops - XOTIC PC - Gaming Notebooks - Custom Laptops - Custom NotebooksJust a quick pointer: Do not look for any pc below an “i5 processor” what you seem to need is that or above, and 8–16 gb of ram, and because of 3D max perhaps a graphic card. I cannot give more details because honestly it depends on the complexity of work you will take; more complex, more stuff but these basic pointers should do good. Best of luck!
Is the 3DS more powerful than the Wii?
I'm going to go with “no”.First off, keep in mind that neither of them was designed to be powerful. Nintendo gave up that race when the GameCube didn't do as well as hoped and chose to focus on creating unique experiences instead of AAA hardware specs. The Wii recycled GameCube hardware with a bump in clock speeds and their portable hardware has ALWAYS been underpowered for the sake of portability and battery life.It's hard to find official specifics on Nintendo's hardware (especially the portables) but there's enough data out there gleaned from press releases, modders, and others to make it pretty clear that the 3DS does not overtake the Wii. There's a possible case to be made that the enhancements made to the NEW Nintendo 3DS make it more powerful in some ways (especially CPU) but the question didn't specify that it was asking about the NEW 3DS so I'm assuming the original.The CPUs: This is in many ways an apples to oranges comparison (ARM vs PowerPC) and without going into processor architectures in too much depth it suffices me to say that they are close enough, tilting toward the Wii being more powerful. The 3DS has two cores but they are much slower than the Wii's single core.The GPUs are very different so this is also an apples-to-oranges comparison, but comparing fill rates in the linked articles gets us close enough to conclude that the Wii is likely the more powerful one. Yes, I know fill rates aren't everything, but when one has more than twice the fill rate it's safe to conclude that it's faster in other things as well.Face-Off: Nintendo 3DS vs New 3DS (includes specs for the 3DS and New 3DS)Wii - Wikipedia (Wii Specs)List of AMD graphics processing units - Wikipedia (see the console GPU section for specs on the Wii and GameCube GPU)
What specs would require to run Citra emulator at 100% speed?
Quoted directly from the Citra FAQ:What kind of specification do I need to run Citra?At this point, Citra is simply not fast enough to run most commercial games at full speed, even if your computer can run the most demanding of PC games just fine.The only hard requirements for the official version of Citra is a graphics chip that supports at least OpenGL 3.3 and a 64-bit OS, but you definitely want a processor with the highest possible performance per core.Note that you can also use a software implementation of OpenGL like Mesa. Only do this if your hardware does not support OpenGL 3.3, even with latest updates – It will be much slower than a real GPU. For Linux Mesa users it should be enough to define the environment variable LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 temporarily. Windows users can copy the opengl32.dll from this package to their Citra folder.
Will my dell xps 15z run 3ds max?
Yeah it should run it fine but will prove to be a bit laggy when you get up there in polys or particles (if you go that route). I don't think older versions of max (prior to 2011) will be much of a problem for your system.
