Comparing computer's performance

KeesW — Mon, 13 Sep 2021 12:42:39 GMT

Is there a way of comparing the performance of different computers and hardware for Archicad? There used to be a standard model that was used to test this. I also asked about this 2.5 years ago and post it again because I am awaiting delivery of a (supposedly) much faster Dell computer and would like to know how it compares to my current 10 year old Dell. My current jobs are too small to make much of a difference but accessing a large standard project could be very useful to compare different computers and/or processors.

I think that Graphisoft's hardware recommendations are out of date because they don't include NVidia's Geforce RTX graphic cards in their considerations.

Update - sorry, I was wrong, there are only quadro RTX models benchmarks.

Have you seen the latest v.25 recommendations? There are some RTX cards benchmarks. Recommended Graphics Cards for Archicad 25 - Graphisoft Community

I run a P1000 Quadro on a very outdated workstation (seem my signature), but have no trouble with even medium sized models. I am still on v24 and will probably skip the v25, so I can't comment on how this hardware works on v25.

Yes there are RTX cards tested but they are all Quadro RTX versions. I'd like to see simillar evaluations on NVidia Geforce RTX cards - which more users are likely to buy because they are about 1/4 - or less - the price.
