JUST WONDERING WHAT OTHER PEOPLE RUN BECAUSE WE ARE TRYING TO UPGRADE OUR COMPUTERS. REVIT 9 WORKS DECENT BUT THEN WHEN WE IMPORT A TOPO IT TOTALLY SLOWS DOWN TO ALMOST UNBEARABLE. WE HAVE DELLS WITH 1.78 GIG PROCESSOR WITH 512 RAM AND 2 256 GRAPHIC CARDS. ANY SUGGESTIONS? I THINK WE NEED LOTS OF MORE RAM. NO ONE AT WORK IS AGREEING.

I'm running a Dell M70 Precision Workstation laptop with a 2.13 Ghz Pentium M processor with 2G RAM and an nVidia Quadro FX Go 1400 graphics card. This set up works well with large toporaghic models. More Ram is likely necessary, I think Revit recommends 1G min. for Revit 8 & 9.

you definitely need more RAM. i have worked on machines with 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB. the difference is amazing. the 512 are nearly unproductive with their speeds. my machine here at the office is a 3.2 GHz Pentium Processor, with 2 GB RAM. it works fine. i have been running Revit, Photoshop and AutoCAD simultaneously and it works fine. (it is a dual core processor)

Hello, I have had many machines running with both atholon 64s, and top end pentiums. the problem is with the small data pipelines on the chip. I found a juicy solution. Use this configuration and your machine will scream with revit... THE BUILD -Dual core intel XEON 3.2ghz 1066 mhz front side bus CPU -motherboard with PCIexpress -4 gb ddr2 DIMM memory 256 MB PCIexpress NVIDIA QUADRO FX3500 US$3500.00 smooth as silk my friends cal crawf
