Your question: Do you need dedicated graphics for Fusion 360?

Do you need a dedicated graphics card for Fusion 360?

Fusion 360 does not need the GPU to run. Instead, it uses your computer CPU. CPU usage provides better flexibility and offers consistent results across platforms.

Can Fusion 360 run on integrated graphics?

Fusion 360 launches with integrated graphics instead of the high performance graphics processor, such as an NVIDIA graphics card. This can also be noted sometimes when Fusion displays a message saying “Your graphics card might not be optimal to run Fusion 360.”

Is Fusion 360 more CPU or GPU?

Fusion 360 only uses the CPU, not the GPU (graphics card) and fully utilizes all available cores power when rendering locally.

Does Fusion use CPU or GPU?

For design work, Fusion (and nearly every other CAD package) relies on single-core CPU performance; it is a lot of complex math that cannot be split apart easily across multiple cores. For rendering, you can use your CPU’s multiple threads, or your GPU. Same goes for animations.

Is 8gb RAM enough for Fusion 360?

The difference shouldn’t really be all that noticeable though, as 8 GB of RAM is more than enough to run Fusion 360 according to the basic system requirements.
