You have to get 2 or 4 sticks of RAM for dual channel setup. Now i am kind of fked cuz i think anyway to put an dedicated video card.
"i shouldnt get 2x4 and get only 1 8 gb chip didnt know if i use the 4 slots the transfer will drop Basically the theoretical RAM speed is the top speed of yur slots, or the RAM, whatever is lower. The only ways for the speed to drop is putting a slower stick into one of them. All four RAM slots should have the same speed. Not sure where you were reading that but it sounds like pure BS. " i got 4 slots on the motherboard, so i can upgrade, but i was reading that if i use the 4 slots the speed of the memory will drop down to 1000Mhz
Windows and AutoCAD will find a way to optimize the more RAM you have and that is why you computer will run more smoothly.
You won't see 10GB (2+8) free RAM when you have 16GB of RAM, more like 5-6GB free, trust me. "today i was looking at the mem usage from task manager, i got like 2gb of free ram when load the file." Pls only ppl that know what they are talking about and please give answers with more data and explanation, thanks. However i really preffer its compatible with the hardware acceleration on, mean to works good, not slowing cuz of the hardware acceleration is being ON. Or explain me what i need for good 2d big drwaings to consider when looking for video card. So my question is, if i take for example quadro k600 or k620, the card looks close in performance with the intel HD 4600, will it work good as a charm with bigger 2d drawings with acceleration ON or i will just waste my money ?Īlso should i consider getting older, cheaper quadro but using directx10 ( will that be total waste of money )Ĭan anyone experienced give me more info ? ( now even consider getting directx 9 video card if es extremly cheap, no matter autodesk saying wont works as fast as directx 11, i really didnt see any diff) I tried using direct x9, i did not see any difference at all. have no clue what is the deal behind it and its really to complicated to find enouhg information It takes time brfore that detail appears next to the cursor, its buggy glitchy or its just not working as good as with the hardware acceleration on.Īlso while moving arround it leaves pixels as trail, totally not cool as with using the acceleration on. When disable hardware acceleration, try to copy bigger detail with many lines in it. So before many of you say, why dont i disable the hardware acceleration, let me say why i don't want to. when zoomtoo closly actually works pretty ok( guess less lines on the screen)
In this matter 2016 is doing much better than 2015, i guess some improving was made with the copy, 2015 almost make my pc unsuable, while 2016 handles the copy with easy except panning the screen and zooming in and out. With the hardware acceleration off its doing pretty ok even then, almost no lag. I should point out that the intel hd 4600 is doing pretty ok except when there are larger files, for example 11mb dwg, then it lags when zoom out and panning and moving the screen. I am using i5 - 4690, intel hd 4600 gpu that is comming with the i5, 2x4mb = total of 8 for the dual channel dd3 memory at 1600 Mhz.ĭedicated mem for the intel hd 4600 is 1gb
