FOR CARLSON’S CAD-BASED PRODUCTS
Carlson products installed on top of the CAD products of IntelliCAD or AutoCAD, are subject to the same requirements as the CAD engine itself. Please follow the requirements for the CAD platform listed below and allow an additional 750 MB of hard-drive space for the Carlson application.
INTELLICAD
CARLSON 2020-2022 WITH INTELLICAD 9.X OR 10.X

CARLSON 2016-2019 WITH INTELLICAD 8.X
Compatible with 32 or 64 bit Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, and 10
HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
Intel® Pentium® 4 or comparable (minimum), Intel i7 or at least Intel i5 or comparable (recommended). Due to the variety of processors on the market, one can use cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php to do comparative analysis. While the overall processor score matters, the single thread performance is of the most interest.
32-bit Windows 7-8.1: 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM minimum, 4 GB recommended.
64-bit Windows 7-10: 2 GB of RAM minimum, 8+ GB recommended.
Windows Vista: 1 GB of RAM minimum, 4 GB recommended.
Windows XP: 512 megabytes (MB) of RAM minimum, 2 GB recommended.
Graphics card compatible with OpenGL Version 1.4 or higher:
Recommended are desktop graphics level discrete (not integrated cards like Intel HD) graphics cards.
Preferably Nvidia Geforce due to their more consistent driver support.
Discrete ATI/AMD cards will be adequate, but ATI’s driver support has been spotty and user is frequently deferred to the computer manufacturer for support.
Professional Nvidia Quadro cards are not currently recommended due to driver issues.
Powerful gaming cards are not required and probably would not provide as much benefit as investment in more memory or better CPU
