Hello @Blazej T,

On the official FlexSim website (https://flexs.im/sysreqs) you'll find FlexSim's most up-to-date system requirements listed.

I hope I have been able to help you.

@Blazej T,

In addition to the minimum and recommended specs mentioned above, there is also a deeper discussion of the various components and how they relate to your FlexSim modeling here:

https://answers.flexsim.com/articles/6/recommended-system-requirements.html

For your new laptops, I would recommend:

  • a current-gen Intel Core i-7
  • Nvidia Geforce 1060 or higher
  • 16 GB RAM or more
  • SSD storage

Your actual needs may vary, but a laptop with those specs will be a pleasure to work with.

Hi @Blazej T,

I assume your model has the Nvidia Quadro? This should work fine with FlexSim. Just make sure to install the latest graphics driver and follow the Quadro-specific suggestions outlined in our Graphics considerations article.
