I am searching for a new computer as my old laptop is out of date - running VW Landmark 2017. I've done a lot of research on-line, and am looking for clarification on the following:
True or False?
- a gaming laptop with should not be used for CAD programs (as they have different requirements?)'
- a dedicated graphics card is not always necesssary (as I see some people seem to be using integrated grapics cards, sometime with better results?)
-NVIDIA Quadro P series versus GTX graphic cards (GTX seem to be intergrated cards on most PC's I have looked at)
- the CPU, not the graphics card is more important for 3D
- the graphics card relates to rendering speed
I am an independent designer doing primarily residential work. I dont want to invest $$$$$ in a computer, but also don't want to cut myself short in a new purchase. Prefer PC over MAC as I think better value in a PC, more configuration options.
any guidance /feedback on questions above would be really appreciated as I seem to be getting bogged down..........
thanks!
