At its core, AutoCAD is a single threaded application. Based on this testing, we have come up with our own list of recommended hardware for AutoCAD.ĢD architectural design with AutoCAD, while not as demanding as 3D based tools like Revit, can still be accelerated with the right hardware. In addition, some lists can be outdated, list old hardware revisions, or outright list sub-optimal hardware.īecause of how inconsistent those lists can be, we've taken the time to perform testing to determine the optimized Mac Pro hardware for AutoCAD. However, most "system requirements" lists tend to cover the minimum required hardware, not the hardware that will achieve optimal performance. The company no longer develops Sketchup Make, its free desktop software, but you can download it from Trimble's archives.Like most software developers, Autodesk maintains a list of system requirements for AutoCAD that can be used to help ensure the hardware in your system will perform well with AutoCAD. The SketchUp website offers a really impressive array of video and self-paced training options to help you along the way. Of course, if you're looking to put out detailed designs with accurate sizing and tolerances, you'll need to spend some time learning the ins and outs of the program. Even if you've never done any CAD work or 3D modeling before, you can pull together some really nice presentations in minutes. The interface makes it easy to get up to speed on the basics.
SketchUp's free web-based version has plenty of power, but if you need additional functionality, you have to buy SketchUp Pro-and pay a hefty price tag. Trimble has enhanced it and developed it further and now offers a slew of related products. In 2012, Google sold the product to Trimble. SketchUp was originally developed by Google and was one of the greatest free CAD packages ever put on the market. Free feature is web-only with many important features hobbled.
