Re: FRC KOP 2016 Inventor and STEP

Howzit!

My first question would be what graphics chipset do you have installed?
That model can comes with three selections.

• AMD FirePro M5950 Mobility Pro with 1GB GDDR5 dedicated memory
• NVIDIA Quadro 1000M with 2GB GDDR3 dedicated memory
• NVIDIA Quadro 2000M with 2GB GDDR3 dedicated memory

CAD is heavy on graphics. I normally would not suggest heavy CAD on a laptop unless it has a real good graphics chipset with lots of dedicated memory.

Also some additional information could be helpful. Like operating system you are using. Clock speed of processor.
You can check your system specs and compare them to the Inventor requirements at

Good luck this year!
