Cyclone/Cloudworx and a 2nd Graphics Card?

Post by GSPhoenix3 »

Can Cyclone make use of a second graphics card?
My organization gets its CAD workstations preconfigured to a certain spec, currently a Lenovo P510 with an Intel Xeon E5-1650 processor, an nVidia Quadro M4000/8GB, 2x M.2 256GB PCIe SSD, and 32 Gigs of RAM.
My intention is to double the RAM and add 2 1TB SSD. I intended to upgrade the graphics card to the next model up nVidia which I believe has 16GB. I still may be able to get one...

Would Leica software make use of a second graphics card?
Any comments or suggestions on the workstation?

Be sure that the SSD is a class 50 for your C drive. That's not so important for your data storage drive D. SSDs come in class 20, 40 and 50 which greatly makes a difference in speed. Google it. I didn't know that untill recently.
