To present you a perspective of the place I’m coming from, My present 7yr previous laptop previous is affected by a failing onerous drive and motherboard (I’m on extraordinarily borrowed time), has an Intel HD Graphics 5500 built-in card on an Intel(R) Core™ i7-5500U CPU @ 2.40GHz processor and 8GB ram. This has at all times run Sketchup Make, simply not exceptionally effectively. It’s been very jumpy and bogs down, nevertheless it has run.
Sadly, I’m having to buy a brand new laptop computer after 3 years of zero revenue whereas caring for my ailing father. I do know zilch about trendy computer systems. I’ve been procuring and researching specs and studying what the heck a cpu and ram and gpu do for 3 days. Right now I’m down to 2 choices in computer systems, as simply going from an built-in to a discrete card and assembly my different system necessities has pressured me to chop again tremendously on my different needs and desires because of both value, availablilty or each. My choices are:
-
pay more cash for the NVIDIA GeForce® MX550, 2 GB GDDR6 with Intel Core i7-1260P and 16gb RAM
I spoke with Sketchup’s IT about this they usually mentioned they can’t make a suggestion for or in opposition to it, though it might not be nice efficiency, and ask the better knowledge of the discussion board. -
pay SIGNIFICANTLY much less cash and hopefully not go broke with the Intel Iris Xe that comes with a LOT extra choices in computer systems.
I’m conscious it’s built-in, nevertheless so is my previous system, and it labored, simply not easily. IT once more deferred to you, the SketchUp Group.
So, given alllll that, is there one that might work higher or worse with SketchUp or are each going to lavatory down on me like my previous system?
I’m not on the lookout for excellent. Simply would one be higher than the opposite?
Perhaps we put it this manner… For those who had the NVIDIA MX550 Intel Iris and Intel HD 5500 in entrance of your automotive… all 3 had been evil and set on ruining a poor girl’s life. You would swerve to crush 2 of them, however 1 would escape… which 2 would you crush? Thanks in your assist!
1st off, what’s your funds?
What’s your funds? The primary one has a great cpu however the gpu is method too previous, and the second you didn’t specified the precise specs, however intel built-in graphics aren’t the most suitable choice for an APU, I might suggest you to test for an amd laptop computer with a ryzen 4000 or 5000 sequence with an built-in gpu, and igpu’s are a lot better than intels igpu, and if you happen to resolve to go for a laptop computer with discrete graphics be sure to get one with not less than an Nvidia GTX 1000 sequence or amd 5000 sequence.
My funds is $1500. Additionally, the laptop computer must be a 2-in-1 (for an entire lot of causes) which is why discovering a suitable graphics card is so onerous. Choices are extraordinarily restricted.
