Performance and Productivity Benefits of AutoCAD® 2013 on a Workstation with a Professional GPU

As a result, many users are not getting the full performance and productivity out of AutoCAD that they could be. In addition, a number of Autodesk® software products that are complementary to AutoCAD and enhance the workflow and results from it, benefit enormously from running on a professional workstation with a professional GPU. In this class, we will look at the model sizes, workflows, and application combinations that have a big impact when running AutoCAD and that show measurable benefits when used with a professional workstation.
