Workstations for SolidWorks

The graphics card (GPU) is arguably one of the most important components when it comes to rendering, visualization, and 3D modeling in SolidWorks. SolidWorks is compatible with professional-grade graphics cards that are optimized for CAD applications, such as NVIDIA Quadro or AMD Radeon Pro series. These cards feature optimized drivers that ensure stability and performance in CAD programs. Unlike consumer-grade GPUs, which are designed for gaming, professional-grade GPUs offer features like certified drivers for specific CAD software, better handling of large models, and more accurate rendering. The GPU helps in real-time rendering, providing smooth visual feedback while working on assemblies and part designs. For users working on complex assemblies or running advanced visualizations, the choice of GPU can significantly impact overall performance.
