Hi Designers! I am a Fashion Design student and Gerber is one software we use in CAD class.
any suggestions on which laptop or PC i should look for when purchasing one? Are any of the gaming PC works? Thanks in advance!

Hi, here the requirement for 15.1.
Accumark 15.1 support Windows 11 Pro 64Bit.
If you will use 3D, a graphic adapter >=4Gb is raccomanded

Thanks Sandro! so many tablet/laptop on the market and its so confusing. What do u think of Microsoft Surface ?

Hi, honestly i think that for the type of work, i'll prefer a solid desktop or a laptop with a big screen (better gaming style). You'll spend many hour in front of a monitor

@FASHION4Life Go for a Workstation Laptop or a Gaming Laptop with an RTX graphic card like Alienware etc.
You can also see the suggestions in the following post (but it's a bit older)

Hi All, if you plan on using 3D the above specs are incorrect. 3D has complete separate requirement for hardware including a NVIDIA graphics card with at least 8 gb of memory on the video card alone. We have also updated the specs with v15.1 of software
