I researched some laptops, and finally I decided Studio XPS 16 for using Revit and AutoCAD .At Revit official website, the recommend system requirements were 2.4 ghz. I am only a beginner in Revit, and I don't like to wait too much when it's rendering. XPS 1640, Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 (2.4GHz/1066Mhz FSB/3M L2 Cache) for $1100 is not worth it??I really want to know if 2.1ghz or 2.2ghz has no problem with using the revit, then I will just cancel the order.

 

thanks for your help, I really need it.

Make sure you have enough ram as well.  4 is minimum

how do you define "too much when its' rendering".  i don't think you will acheive that goal with this laptop. but if you have enough ram it will get the job done in all other ways.
