Recommended Specifications for ArcPro 2.6.2

Hi all,

I'd like to make a recommendation to my IT guy on the hardware for my workstation. I know what the minimum recommendations are but I'd like to know what I should be using and a brief explanation of why. I generally manipulate datasets with tens of thousands of features, sometimes hundreds of thousands. I feel like there's something missing from my machine but wanted to reach out to see if you all had any input. Thanks!

Here is the specs of my workstation:

CPU - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz, 4001 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)

GPU - NVIDIA GeFroce GTX 750 ti

RAM - 16GB

SSD

Thanks you all for your help.

Hi Dan,

Here is the report from that systems requirements analysis. This report suggests a better graphics card would be recommended. But 8GB of RAM is all that is recommended for ArcPro? Would there be any benefit from adding more? Thank you!

32 GB Ram, 6 GB dedicated video (22 GB total, dedicated is the key), 1 TB drive is what I use for my laptop (Surface Book 3)

Everything runs smoothly
