NX on Laptop

NX on Laptop

NX on Laptop

(OP)
I'm thinking of purchasing a new laptop to run NX. The only problem is that the Nvidia card is a GeForce GTX560M, Seimens does not haved this card as supported on GTAC, probably because its a gaming card. I've been told that Quadro cards are better suited to CAD. Unfortuanately I'm not sure I can get the Quadro card on my configuration. Does anyone know if I'll have a problem using the GeForce card?

RE: NX on Laptop

try it, I seen hardware combination not official supported,
If problems occur - no support

RE: NX on Laptop

It will work but if you have graphics problems then your on your own as GTAC won't assist.
I work support for a reseller and when people see graphics problems, 9 times out of 10 it's the gaming/consumer cards.
Personally I would look at the HP Elitebooks or the Dell Precisions. Most of them are certfied. They are more expensive but if you use it for work & you've already spent money on NX, what's a bit extra to guarantee no issues.
