    thank you

    does this apply for design and visualization on 3D MAX also

    I want a laptop for programming…could you help me with that

  16. Koushiic Durai on October 31, 2019 at 6:06 pm

    It’s about time you have a Mac OS version of solid works guys!! It’s about time!!

    Hello, I am a Civil engineering student looking to purchase a laptop for solidworks, I am looking to buy the hp x360 15.6 inch that has 16gig ram, Nvidia graphics card, 512 SSD, and core i7 8th Gen. My question is will this be good enough for me to run solidworks smoothly or not. Thank you In anticipation of your response.

    Just buy a Ryzen and forget about what this Joe said in the video. He has shown 0 knowledge in hardware. Ryzen suppprts ECC, but you dont need it with SolidWorks anyway. Also, FirePro from AMD are much more affordable for same performance. I can only conclude that this was sponsored video. And that is something that needs to be mentioned.

  19. Daniel Aguila on October 31, 2019 at 6:09 pm

    Thank you for the very informative video! Would you recommend the Surface pro 6? I have been thinking on getting one with 16gb, 256 storage.

    For last 12 years I work as automotive design engineer and for last 4 years I work also as design engineer in domain of optoelectronics and optomechanics,nanotechnology,micro lens technology etc.I have some assemblies with more than 40K components at 6x6mm and guess what,I use advanced binned GTX1080ti..I use both QUADO and standard gaming cards but only difference is customer support and thats it.Long time ago we had some cards like Quadro FX 4800 with noticeable difference but right now the cards are more advanced with large amount of memory and there is no reason to buy QUADRO card unles you are a Pixar or you need someone to hold your balls in day to day work for that extra money.

    Hello!
    I bought an ASUS ROG Zephyrus M notebook with in GTX 1060 6Gb, but I also bought an eGPU case – AkiTio Node Pro.
    I’d like to use it at home, like a "workstation" and output to external monitor.
    I added to the eGPU a Quadro K5000 and had a lot of issues with drivers. (Quadro vs. GeForce) Can’t use external monitor.
    I wrote to Nvidia support, but they wont support this kind of combination. (they gave me a link to a forum with theme from 2010; and now is 2019 )
    Indeed the Quadro K5000 in AkiTio Node Pro connecting via ThunderBolt 3 showing better result in SolidWorks (nearly the same, like the GTX 1060)
    So, if I will buy a Quadro P4000 GPU to use it like an eGPU, will it perform better in my case?
    Or can you somehow to affect Nvidia that they do somethig with drivers?
    No one will give me a Quadro P4000 for test, but there are no sense to by an ~1000$ Quadro P4000 GPU with this kind of driver issues and leave it on the shelve after failed test.
    The AkiTio Node Pro is alredy on the on the shelve. (~500$)

    Thank you very much for your support. This ideas are really recommended for a Senior Design Engineer

  26. Oliver Cairn on October 31, 2019 at 6:23 pm

    so an i9 9900k?

  27. Speed on October 31, 2019 at 6:24 pm

    So, for those of us students that won’t buy a workstation with AMD or Nvidia quadro GPU cards, what other gpu’s could we consider?

  28. David Micevski on October 31, 2019 at 6:28 pm

    Quadro graphics cards are hard to come by on a laptop. What would you recommend from the Rtx range of graphics cards?

  29. Matias Vega on October 31, 2019 at 6:28 pm

    Can we use a Ryzen instead of a Xeon?

  30. Karim Benny on October 31, 2019 at 6:29 pm

    for begineers and students I recommend low end laptops and for high end use your schools or Job desktop. meaning that you use your laptop for presenatation and small design fixes and desktop for simulation and vice verse. and dont forget get to move your body

  31. NikosApla on October 31, 2019 at 6:32 pm

    Can someone help me pick hardware parts to build a new pc for civil engineering (as a Job not a student pc)?

  32. Boom Planet on October 31, 2019 at 6:34 pm

    aight imma head out to buy a laptop with a "quadro" gpu hope my broke ass can find one cheap.
