Archicad 27 system requirements

Hi!

Does Archicad 27 works more optimized and actually needs less PC power (CPU, RAM...) then Archicad 26?

Going by those specs it looks like the more mid-range to high end specs for 26.

 

Having said that it does run OK on my machines (see specs in signature).

I haven't noticed any difference to running 26, although I must admit I have only been testing it with residential housing projects, and haven't done anything on a large commercial scale.

What about the CPU? It's very vague to give only the range (i7 or i9). Should we really opt for a CPU with the highest Turbo Max? So an i7 with a higher Turbo max than an i9 with more cores but a lower turbo would be less efficient on Archicad?
