But I have to because I live at the other end of civilization with no support or stores to get anything so I have to provision by the brown truck. What I like about the Dell rackstations is that they are bulletproof, I have spares of everything. I benchmark against the latest stuff fairly well including hotrodded processors.
You can go bigger than this but really it isn't necessary. Also am a keyboard snob always have a Microsoft Natural 4000 and I prefer wired usb for everything into a wired hub. I also have 2 large monitors, a collection of trackballs, my favorite being the new Logitech Ergo and of course 3D connexion 6 dof mouse in my left hand always. But clever people build machines for no real dollars. These cards are expensive when they are introduced. I have upgraded cards about every 2 years as the darling of the industry plummets below $200 on ebay.

Some also run a small flash drive for primary software installs. I run 32 gigs error checking server ram 500G SSD and terrabytes of rotating plattens. I have dual quad core 3.0GHZ processors in a 2U Dell rack workstation. Regular running of just editing solids in SW uses randomly selected processors by my monitoring. I've been working with this system for several hours per day and the limits of the machine haven't impacted my productivity much.Ĭlick to expand.SW FEA, Graphics like rendering and CFD all use all the processors available. I've also seen some slowing if I have more than 20 or so individual parts open along with the main assembly, but it isn't memory related. That also slows things up for a few seconds when it does it's thing. I've got my automatic backup software set to back up the files every 10 or 20 minutes minutes if there are any changes.
In the past I was just working off the NAS and it would get pretty slow. I can say that I've started to use the local hard drive storage more with the larger files. I've never had an SSD in any of my machines so I don't know if they are really needed. I also get some poor display (faceted curves/splines) at times, but a real graphics card would take care of that little problem. They were still there, just wouldn't display no matter how long I waited. The only time I've used up my memory (16) was when I had several open sketches at one time with fairly large JPGs underlayed while redrawing the AV-36 plans.
