High Performance PC for AutoCAD 2022
Performance in AutoCad 2023 relies heavily on processor clock speed and 3D rendering work also relies on the GPU. The combination of the Intel Core i7-14700F processor with the Quadro T1000 GPU creates an ideal combination in this computer. The processor has 20 cores and is able to boost CPU clock speed to 5.4GHz. The processor is the latest 14th generation CPU and offers a significant step up in performance compared with the one used in our best value system.
Fast and reliable storage is also very important which is why we have incorporated a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD drive as the primary storage drive along with a 2TB HDD. The SSD is particularly fast and helps the PC feel very quick in day to day tasks.
The 32GB of memory included with this PC is ideal for more complex CAD models including complex 3D. The motherboard has two free memory slots so it is possible to upgrade the memory to 128GB later if required. The memory used is also a higher performance 3200MHz product.
The graphics card is a PNY Quadro T1000 4GB NVidia Professional GPU workstation graphics card. It is a model on the AutoCAD official support list and works well in both 2D and 3D models.
The PC has been designed to operate at high performance for extended periods of time and has powerful processor cooling to ensure you experience no drop off in performance. The cooling fans are of a low noise design too.
