Re: New Cybersonics Computer

This is the part where I laugh maniacly and tell you our CAD and 3D teams were using PCs with 512 RAM and 1.8gHz single core processors. (I don't remember exact stats, but they would make any Inventor users in here cry.)
However, those days are over (as are the 10 inventor copies on those computers that are now lost to the trash heap. stupid IT guys...) The new CAD lab is...amazingly sexy.

Haha i just looked up the specs on the computers we're running in the new CAD lab Ed, and they actually are so much better than last year. (Note to everyone: last year the computers took 10 minutes or so just to boot Autodesk11, much less do anything in it. Any action took a minute or two to process. and forget about rendering!)
the link to the stats is here
and it's pretty nice. its looking like we have at the least 2.8gHz.. i like it!

Uh, I don't want to imagine the amount of heat that thing must create. I hope it's got good fans. *shudders*

I remember when we had 10 computers going full out last year, it was an oven in February!

Re: New Cybersonics Computer

An efficient animation and good planning always solved my rendering issues.

The ten laptops the advisors brought in on the deadline date had nothing to do with it, I swear.
