new PC advice (old pc: slow updates on elevations)

[Anonymous]

I would like to buy a new PC my old one works ok but is slow with shadows even on small projects. And slow regenerating in elevation views.

OLD PC
i5@3,2Ghz (quad-core)
240GB SSD
8GB RAM
Nivdia quadro K620

New PC
i7@4,0Ghz (quad-core)
256GB SSD M.2
32GB RAM
Nvidia quadro K620 (I would like to wait for the new PASCAL microarchitecture or maybe a game video card??)

Regenerating elevation views will this be faster with the new PC? And 3D shadows?

I just wanted to post back. On my new (old) 2010 dual six core dual Xeon Mac Pro section and elevation updates make use of all 24 cores, whether they are virtual or not. Usage caps at about 50% though.
