Enhancing performance – NXT BLD London, June 2018
Mike Leach addressed the burning issue of how to get the right specification workstation for the right job. Not all software is created equal and some crave CPU, others eat RAM and some demand GPU. It’s totally down to workflows and software product mix. Leach defined handy recipe cards for four types of workflow – 3D design/ BIM, BIM & Design Review, Viz and VR, AI & Deep Learning. Each specifying processor type (speed and number of cores), RAM, graphics and SSD.
