Hi Einav,
We don’t have a specific computer that we would recommend to purchase but we do recommend to get a computer that has an I7-8th generation processor with 16 gigabytes of RAM, including a dedicated graphics card such as the Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080 or greater. You can look at the GTX 1660, or you can look at the RTX 20-series.
Click HERE to see a computer that we found on BestBuy.com. We arent saying you have to get this exact model but as you see, this model has all we would need. As long as you get something that resembles that machine, then you should be A-Ok!
Regards,
Kris

Thank you for your quick response.
Which one of these would be better?
or would you recommend to go with a 2070 card?
Thanks again for your help with this.

Look Dell G3 3590 with a price tag of about $ 1500. And here I want to start the story right away with a discrete video card. The fact is that the user is already offered NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti with 6 GB of its own memory. Such a solution has a noticeably higher performance margin and will open up more possibilities for the user. There is more RAM here – the base volume is 8 GB, which is already perceived as the optimal minimum for modern tasks. The memory frequency is also higher here, it is 2666 MHz. But the main storage is – 512 GB. By the way, these laptops are used in the service https://writemypaperbro.com/paper-writing-service/ in which I work.

Hi Einav,
Going over all three computers you’ve listed here, I would suggest to go with the MSI. Just from looking at the machines, it seems that the MSI has a larger display than the Lenovo with a better processor too. Comparing it to the HP we can also see that the MSI has more space (msi has 1.0T HDD and 512 SSD while the HP only has 512SSD).
Overall in my opinion, I would go for the MSI.
Regards,
Kris

Hi Kris,
Thank you very much for helping with this.
I think the MSI is making more sense now. do you think the RTX2070 or RTX 2080 is a little overkill for what the 2020 software needs? since the cost is so much higher than the RTX 2060?
Thanks again.

Hi Einav,
You shouldn’t have any issues going with the RTX 2060 model rather than the 2070 or 2080.

I would like to use my MacBook Pro, which I purchased in January. Will it work with 2020Design under Boot Camp Assist VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktop?

Hi Mark,
Yes, you can use your MacBook Pro as long as you install BOOTCAMP. To set up bootcamp, you should call Apple Support and get some assistance from them.
Be sure however that your machine is up to the task.. Make sure it has the system requirements that we need. You can find the requirements HERE.
However, we do not support the program if you are running on parallels. You must use the program on the machine itself.
Regards,
Kris

Just a rider to what Kris said about the Macbook Pro. The new M1 series of Apple processors is NOT compatible with BOOTCAMP or indeed Fusion, Parallels or any of the other methods of running Windows on a Mac. If you have bought an M1 machine, you are SOL at least until someone finds a way of emulating Intel architecture on an M1 chip – do not hold your breath.
Re the discussion about notebooks, I have just purchased 2 MSI GL65 Leopard units for some new designers – i7 6 core, 12 threads. So far very pleased with them.

I got one of these last year. It’s been great. I use an external monitor.

Hi Ford,
I have 2 brand new MSIs in operation and they are great but there is a known issue with the Nahimic audio software that comes with the laptop. There is a response from Kris on how to turn this off here: https://www.2020spaces.com/forums/topic/version-12-4-16-86-endless-crashes/If it isn’t this causing the crashes then try switching everything off in Startup to make sure you are using it as ‘clean’ as possible. Also make sure your graphics drivers are up to date.
