Recommended Specs For Gta 4

[Julia Kozub]

Its my turn to get a new machine this year and I'm not sure If I need to build a higher-end gaming desktop, or get an actual workstation. I maintain our City's water, sewer, drainage, and zoning maps. Right now the machine is quite slow using ArcGIS Desktop 10.6. When working in ArcMap, I get lots of freezing up and "Not Responding" messages. I to have several different years on aerial images in my map, as well as layers for water, sewer, drainage,m zoning etc. The aerial images are not stored on a local machine, they are accessed through the NC OneMap server. I'm not 100% sure if the slow downs are caused by our network, or my hardware.

I did see that. My current machine is rated as "recommended" or "optimal" according to their specs, but it is still slow. My municipality is new to GIS, so I don't have anyone to help me determine if my issues are hardware, software, or network related.

I wouldn't describe what is described in the 2nd paragraph as very specific. For example, " When working in ArcMap, I get lots of freezing up and "Not Responding" messages." What does "when working" mean? Are you running geoprocessing tools? If so, which ones? Are you building maps for either printing or export? If so, how are the map layouts structured in terms of data layers and layout elements? Are you editing data? If so, what data and how?

I don't mean to sound dismissive, I want to help, but there isn't really anything specific enough here yet for people to comment on if you say your machine already meets Esri requirements and then some.

You'll have to forgive me for my poor description of the problem as I'm still new to ArcGIS. I started out maintaining all our City's utilities in AutoCAD, after redrawing them all from paper maps. Someone in the administration decided they wanted to "use GIS" so they hired a contractor to convert all my AutoCAD data into GIS. The contractor gave me 8 hours of GIS training. I've been working to clean up that data ever since.

My database is one layer, with feature classes for each utility type (water, sewer, etc). I have layers for parcels, city limits, and zoning. Then I have 4 different layers of aerial imagery, (different years) that are accessed through the NC One Map servers.

I'm mainly editing the utility data right now. I'll select "edit features" for whatever utility I'm working on that day. I get nothing from our people in the field, so I mainly make edits using the aerial images as a reference, or scanned tiff files I have georeferenced. I'll move a hydrant or manhole, or create new ones using the "create features" tool. Pretty basic stuff. Sometimes just panning the view around, or selecting an object can cause the map to freeze up. The cursor will change to the blue/green circle and spin, or the whole screen will grey out and say "not responding". I have to remember to save my updates constantly ( I know you should do that anyways) because sometimes the program will completely crash.

It's worse when I have the aerial imagery on. I often have to switch between images to be able to get the clearest view of the area I'm working on. Sometimes the images switch quickly, sometimes it will hang up for 15-30 seconds. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.

I believe you could access them, I don't remember having to use a login/password to access them. The server URL is . I use the 2007, 2010, 2012 and 2018 imagery. They are all located in the "Imagery" folder

I took a look at those imagery services, they are public facing and accessible. In terms of structure, the imagery services are pretty vanilla, nothing special about them. In terms of performance, well, pretty poor at larger map scales. The services initially load fairly quickly, but when you start zooming in, the response times become 5+ seconds. I had one zoom take 8 seconds.

ArcMap is, unfortunately, very linear/serial in many aspects, including rendering and refreshing data layers. If you have several data sources that each take several seconds to refresh, it can easily cause ArcMap to "hang" for 10+ seconds or even much longer. We have run into similar issues in our organization where users have 50+ data sources from EGDBs, GIS Servers, and other network sources in a data frame and complain about how long it takes to open ArcMap and visualize data.

There is likely no silver bullet to making your application fast. Troubleshooting network data sources takes time, effort, and in-depth knowledge of how the applications (both server and client) and network operate. It could be that EGDBs and GIS services are slow because the data is slow at the ArcGIS Server tier, but it could also be the data is fine with the servers, and the issue is the connection between the client and the server.

While you sort out the root cause of your issues, only keep the data layers you need in the data frame. If layers are loaded in the data frame but visibility is turned off, the client still likes to talk with those servers. Dragging unused slow layers from the active data frame to another data frame cuts out all of that extraneous chatter between the client and server and can help the responsiveness of the application in certain cases.

GeForce NOW requires at least 15Mbps for 720p at 60 FPS and 25Mbps for 1080p at 60 FPS. We also require less than 80ms latency from an NVIDIA data center. However, for the best experience, we recommend less than 40ms. Please read this knowledge base article on how to test your network.

We recommend a USB gaming mouse for PC and Mac. Logitech and Razer offer many different options. If you are using a mouse and experiencing stutters, you can try lowering your mouse polling rate (125Hz) to eliminate stutters.

Please note 1440p and 120 FPS streaming, available with a GeForce NOW Ultimate membership, needs to be manually selected from the GeForce NOW Settings menu. These resolutions and framerates are currently available on Windows, Chrome OS browsers and are not supported when streaming from a browser on macOS, Android, iOS Safari. 4K resolutions are only available on native PC or macOS apps.

We also recommend using gamepad clips to attach a Microsoft or Sony gamepad to your phone. If you are connecting your gamepad using USB, you need to use a USB on-the-go (OTG) cable to connect the gamepad to the phone, which can be purchased on Amazon.

You can use a keyboard or mouse only for navigating game menus to type usernames and passwords. However,keyboard and mouse is not recommended for gameplay due to limitations in Safari and may not work at all.

Hello everyone! I'm starting college soon and doing their Mechanical Engineering program. All I know is that I need a laptop for it when I start, and that we'll be using Autocad. I saw on other posts that people wanted to know, but I haven't seen anywhere whether or not we'll be using 2D or 3D (it may be obvious either way since it's Mechanical Engineering, but I know nothing). I need this to last at least 4 years, so my strategy was to go a little above the recommended specs to hopefully have it function well with Autocad 2028 or whatever I'll be using my senior year. I thought I saw somewhere that Autocad is GPU heavy, so that's what I mainly am focusing on when looking, I figure the CPU will be good enough in the laptop if the GPU is. I was thinking an RTX 4070 8gb or AMD equivalent? Is that enough, for now and four years into the future? Feedback is much appreciated, thank you.

Thank you! Do you have any recommendations for a GPU that will run well for the next 4 years of software? I'm hesitant to buy just the recommended GPU because I noticed that the recommended becomes more and more powerful over the years. The 2020 software recommended a 4gb GPU, and this years is recommending an 8gb GPU. I'm concerned that a similar jump will happen by the time the 2028 software rolls around, and my GPU that once worked well will be less than ideal.

Read this about future-proofing your purchase, then make an informed decision, no one here knows your budget and I'd be very surprised if you'll always be limited to using old CAD software like AutoCADMECHANICAL for long when there are more advanced programs that employers are hiring for out there:
