Archicad 13 / 14 running on a 64 MB video card?

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I am looking for a cheap laptop replacement - I have found one, it has a videocard Nvidia Geforce FXGo5600 64 MB.
Will the software run on this videocard? As I have read, the program requires a 256MB video card - but I dont know, if this is a minimum system requirement, or not...

Please help me, I have to make quick a decision,
thanks!

I don't know if it will run but if it does the 3D window performance will probably be quite bad.

In a recent webinar GS talked about hardware requirements for ArchiCAD:

At 21:30 in the recording you will see the requirements for a graphics card.
They say it should have 512 MB of memory or more.
So I think that 64 MB will cause problems for you.

Also, the graphics card should not be integrated onto the motherboard, the machine should have a separate graphics card.
