Will this PC work for 3D modeling programs without lagging?

Priscilla Butaya, That will depend on the specific program(s) you would be running. Each will have it's own minimum and recommended system requirements. The closer to, or the margin by why which the system exceeds, the recommended requirements the better the programs will perform.

You may want to go for something stronger, otherwise if you buy this PC then consider upgrading its graphics card and/or processor. It'll be great for medium sized projects but you might want to go bigger.

I don't use mine for gaming. I would assume the processor would have difficulty with such applications. I would recommend something with a quad core at a minimum.

Yes. I am currently running AutoCAD 2010, solid works 2012 and mastercam x8 and all run well enough.

I'm running maya 2013 on mine. So far, I can tell you the biggest drawbacks of using maya on the y510p for me have been the lack of a second screen and the fact that you will basically be required to use a usb mouse since the trackpad won't be able to handle it. But I'm guessing you already know about those. The graphics card holds up pretty well, even while using viewport 2.0, and I've been rendering using Octane which utilizes both GPUs for a pretty solid performance. I haven't done any big renders pushing the CPU, but I imagine it'd work about what you'd expect for an i7. Also, this has been my first laptop with a number pad, and it has made life so much nicer for this type of work. All in all, it's very solid. You could probably find a laptop that could do better in maya, but it would also probably be huge and very expensive. I'm very satisfied with the performance of mine in this regard. Did you have any specific questions?

Typically speaking yes, but since mine craft is so GPU demanding I would advise running quad sli with your pentium 4 CPU.

Yes it will run AutoCad. I run Solidworks, SolidCam and Numrotoplus which all three are very demanding softwares for strong hardware. Of course you can always get a better stronger laptop but I like the size and weight. I travel and dock it in a docking station when I'm home. I run 2-24" HP Elite displays.

Yes you should be able, depending on your processor and amount of RAM available

I think so, I use some Adobe software like Photoshop and Illustrator with no trouble. It does have 2 video cards so it will take on some graphic processing quite easily.

Yes it should work just fine but I am not sure how fast it will make your computer. Memory helps but its all about the processor also.

Completely depends on your use. If you're using ANY Autodesk, Adobe or Bentley software you need to look at the K620. Graphics are everything now days. I have this card, the K4000 and K610. They work 3D magic!

I have this model but it all depends on which model you get. Some come with a Core i3. I have the i5 model and I can play most 3d games on medium to high settings well.

I got it for a i5 system with a quadro video card for 3D modeling.Worked perfectly. I think for a gaming system it should be fine.

It should not have a problem running Windows 7 or 8. You would have to check the system requirements for Autocad to see if it is capable of running that. I wouldn't recommend this for any CAD applications though as it is not a powerhouse, but even still it may be possible.

Yes it will, smoothly. Minecraft is not a really demanding game graphic wise so yes.
1294517
yes... I have used both adobe AND autocad. they both are very fast on an i7 machine.

That is not something I use it for. I think based on what I have experienced though it would work fine. If that was what you wanted a pc for then I think the next model up would be better for the graphics you want. Better but not necessary. I am very happy with mine,

No, if he is looking to do some serious gamin and doesn't want lag while watching videos you may want to get him a dell gaming laptop or something by cyberpowerpc :) hope that helps! Processor needs to be at least an i5 if he wants a smooth entertainment experience.. This computer is good for office work.. You'll need more for him to be happy
