When possible, laptops should be configured with NVMe-based drives that enable even faster processing. Built with fewer moving parts, they tend to be less susceptible to minor drops or normal wear and tear. SSD drives (solid-state drives) load data far more quickly than HDDs (hard disk drives) because they are built with interconnected flash-memory chips. It’s important to choose enough RAM to drive the most powerful applications while running several other programs simultaneously. When it comes to RAM, DDR4 is essential and 16 GB or 32 GB of RAM will enable faster loading and processing.

Choose the latest GPUs that are certified for specific CAD applications and the laptop’s monitor as well as any external monitors. The graphics card will handle most of the compute-intensive workload in a CAD program. The higher the boost frequency, the better your CAD performance will be. You also want to look for CPUs with a higher boost frequency – the maximum speed of any single core. 3.5 MHz is recommended for heavy-duty jobs. A minimum CPU clock speed of 3 MHz is recommended for any significant CAD production. Because CAD programs typically run on a single-core, it’s wiser to invest in fewer cores with higher clock speeds than in multiple cores running at slower clock speeds. Laptops built for running CAD programs must be built with components specifically designed to accommodate the strenuous demands of resource-intensive applications.
