Powerful workstation PCs engineered for your software Dassault Systèmes for Product Designers & Engineers

3D Design CPU2 6-12 cores / 5.0 GHz or faster

Design is mainly single-threaded, which is why we recommend a higher-frequency AMD processor with a lower core count.

GPU3

1x entry-level professional series

CAD applications utilize professional GPUs to enable high-resolution design environments and more dynamic user interfaces.

Memory4

16-64 GB RAM

Project complexity and the number of projects running determine the amount of RAM needed.​ For basic designs, choose 16 GB RAM, and for more complex projects or multitasking, scale up to 64 GB.

Storage5

1 TB or more

This is determined by project scale, but a minimum of 1 TB will be needed. An additional 1 TB data drive is recommended for LOTAR (long-term archiving and retrieval).

3D Modeling CPU2

6-12 cores / 5.0 GHz​​ or faster

Modeling is mainly single-threaded, which is why we recommend a higher-frequency AMD processor with a lower core count.​

GPU3

1x entry-level or mid-range professional series

Modeling benefits from the GPU cores and memory found in professional graphics cards. Scale up according to model and assembly size.

Memory4

32-64 GB RAM

Project complexity and the number of projects running determine the amount of RAM needed.

Storage5

1 TB or more

This is determined by project scale, but a minimum of 1 TB will be needed. An additional 1 TB data drive is recommended for LOTAR (long-term archiving and retrieval).

Product recommendations for Dassault Systèmes

HP Series 7 ProHP ZBook Ultra G1a Up to AMD Ryzen™ AI Max+ PRO 395 processor2

HP Z6 G5 A Up to AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 7000 WX-Series CPU2

Simulation & Analysis CPU2

6-12 cores

CAE applications are resource- intensive, benefiting from both cores and clock speed in an AMD processor.

GPU3

Up to 2x mid-range or 1x high-end professional series

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) almost always benefit from advanced GPUs with high core count and memory.

Memory4

64-152 GB RAM

Model size and complexity determine the amount of RAM needed.​ A minimum of 64 GB is recommended.

Storage5

1 TB or more

Simulation and analysis workflows generate large amounts of data. Depending on the amount of data your project requires, start with 1 TB and scale up as needed. An additional 1 TB data drive is recommended for LOTAR (long-term archiving and retrieval).

Rendering & Visualization CPU2

6-12 cores

Rendering is a multi-threaded workflow, taking advantage of all cores available. We recommend prioritizing higher core count over clock speed in an AMD processor.

GPU3

Up to 2x mid-range or 1x high-end professional series

Mid-range to high-end graphics are recommended for rendering.6

Memory4

32-64 GB RAM

Project complexity and the number of projects running determine the amount of RAM needed.

Storage5

1 TB or more

This is determined by project scale, but a minimum of 1 TB will be needed. An additional 1 TB data drive is recommended for LOTAR (long-term archiving and retrieval).
