BricsCAD system requirements
System requirements and recommendations for Microsoft Windows and Linux PCs, and Apple Macs.
| Supported Operating Systems |
|
Note:
|
Minimum CPU:
|
Recommended CPU:
|
The CPU with the highest single-thread performance rating will always excel with BricsCAD . Additional CPU cores will bring in higher performance, as more and more functions gets multithreaded computation in BricsCAD.
Note:
|
| Minimum System Memory:
8 GB |
Recommended System Memory:
|
For maximum performance, determine the memory configuration of your PC and ensure that each memory channel on the motherboard is populated with at least one memory module . |
| Minimum Disk Space:
2 GB for BricsCAD Ultimate, installed |
Recommended Disk Space:
(As needed) |
We recommend PCI-E NVME as system drives, for both BricsCAD and Windows. Drawings and support files can reside on slower mechanical hard disk drives, if necessary. Note: Solid-state disks can be up to 10x faster reading and 20x faster writing data than a mid-range hard disk drive

Minimum Display System:
|
Recommended Display System:
|
On Microsoft Windows systems, most graphics cards & GPUs from NVIDIA, AMD and Intel® are supported. On Linux systems, most graphics cards and GPUs from NVIDIA and AMD are supported. On Mac systems, native Apple display hardware is supported. BricsCAD’s non-wireframe display modes are generated by RedSDK technology from Redway3D®. The GPU is used to render this modes. Note: We suggest that you install the latest drivers available for your display hardware, as recommended by the manufacturer.
Note to Linux users: Hardware acceleration of 3D graphics on Linux systems is NOT supported on:
