Need help optimizing performance!

Karsten Hormann Nov 18, 2013 9:50 AM

can anyone give input on optimizing performance in solidworks 2013. I am getting edges that stay highlighted after I move the pointer away from them and slow graphics refresh.

this is not a hardware issue, I am running a new dell precision t3600, quadro 2000 card.

I am used to Cimatron's fast, clean graphics. any suggestions?

Karsten,
Let's start with the other basics: OS, RAM, and what video card driver are you using.
Then what are you seeing this in? A simple part, complex part, assembly, large assembly, huge massive extremely large assembly? just one file or any files you use? Does a reboot of SolidWorks or your computer make any difference (does it appear after working a while)?

A Quadro 2000 or a K2000?

Do you have the approved version of driver for your card from the SolidWorks website installed?
