currently, i've been using revit architecture 2011 and in the process of training.

my desktop is currently a 4core pc with 8gig ram and a decent high end gaming Vcard.

so, as i was doing this tutorial from youtube, about creating adaptive and parametric curtain panel by pattern system

and applying it to a curved surface, the model in my revit was regenerating so slow. while the same model in youtube

was instant! the model was small and it's just a mass. i'm very worried, that at this stage, my pc can hardly cope with it

what more if i'm actaully on a project.

so does revit really needs an insane 16core - 32 gig ram? i was starting to think that this is the minimum, sigh*

Its not hardware issue, What you could do is create another view where to model, with that mass hidden. And only regenerating once.

"Creating adaptive and parametric curtain panel by pattern system and applying it to a curved surface". That's a tall order.

 

For someone in training you have managed to jump right into some fairly advanced tasks.

 

Do you have an actual requirement to build adaptive parametric panels on a curved surface ?

 

I've been using REVIT for 8+ years and haven't touched that stuff so I am personally not aware of the hardware and video requirements for this type of modeling.

Unless you have an actual need for this advanced modeling I suggest you stick with the fundamentals and see how your PC performs.

 

Just understanding the theory of adaptive parametric panels and multiple nested families makes me think "High Performance PC".
