Hardware Recommendations for SOLIDWORKS 2016Minimum SystemOS: Windows 10 , Windows 8.1 64, or Windows 7 64CPU: Intel i5 Core Intel i7 Dual Core, or equivalent AMD Hard Drive: 250GB, 7200rpmGraphics Card: 2GB NVIDIA Quadro K2100M, 2 GB ATI FirePro M4000 , or similarMemory: 8GBThis is a good system for simple parts, moderately sized assemblies and drawings.Assemblies should contain less than 200 components.The system is efficient for running part and assembly simulations including linearstatics, thermal, frequency, fatigue, and optimization. Gap and contact simulationswill run fine on small assemblies that contain simple parts.The system is sufficient for simple flow simulations.Approximate cost: 1,600 for laptopApproximate cost: 1,400 for desktopBasic SystemOS: Windows 10 , Windows 8.1 64, or Windows 7 64CPU: Intel Core i7 Quad Core, or Intel Xeon , or equivalent AMD Hard Drive: 250GB Solid State DriveGraphics Card: 2GB NVIDIA Quadro K2100M, K2000, 2 GB ATI FirePro M4000 , or similarMemory: 8-16GB (as required)Use this configuration for complex parts that include advanced shapes, largepatterns, shells, and more than 200 features.The system is adequate for assemblies that contain 200-1,000 components.The system is efficient for running part and assembly simulations including nonlinear, dynamics, random vibrations along with moderate gaps and contacts.The system is sufficient for moderate flow simulations.Approximate cost: 2,100 for laptopApproximate cost: 1,800 for desktopAdvanced SystemOS: Windows 10 , Windows 8.1 64, or Windows 7 64CPU: Intel Core i7 Quad Core, or Intel Xeon , or equivalent AMD Hard Drive: 250GB Solid State DriveGraphics Card: 3GB NVIDIA Quadro K3100M, K4000, ATI FirePro V7900 , or similarMemory: 16GB (as required)This configuration should be used for large assemblies that contain 1,000 – 200,000components.The system is sufficient for large complex analysis and large flow simulations.Approximate cost: 3,000 for laptopApproximate cost: 2,500 for laptop800.688.3234 GOENGINEER.COM

Theserecommendations will vary depending on implementation size. SOLIDWORKS Corporation cannotguarantee system performance or behaviour for installations running on configurations notmeeting the minimum recommended levels. The hard drive requirements are solely dependent onthe size of data stored in the system. Therefore, the actual requirements can exceed the valuesstated.-It is not recommended to install any instances of other applications on the Database or ArchiveServer. It is recommended these are dedicated machines.-To ensure optimum performance, it is not recommended to install anti-virus software on thevault computer* Microsoft SQL Server 2012 supported as of Enterprise PDM 2013 SP3800.688.3234 GOENGINEER.COM
