I'm sorta sad, I was going to order the program today, but when I looked at the requirements I noticed that the processors listed were only intel platinum or amd athlon 64. Does anyone use this program with a intel celeron d?

HiProfile

The place I work at has a computer running Solidworks 2k3 or 2k5 (recent), and I *know* the cpu is slower than ****, much slower that a celeron d could be. Maybe a p3, if that.

It should work on that assuming you don't try rendering a full battleship's layout

Unless you are going to be opening large assemblies or using Cosmos for FEA, you shouldn't have to worry too much about your processor. Lots of memory will definately make your life easier though.

I've run Solidworks 2005 on an AMD 800MHz system with 384 MB ram and it ran ok. Not ideal, but it worked

i run it on a pentium 4 with no problems. its in a dell comp that was about a $1000 so its nothing super special.

I ran it on a older system and it would crash the pc whenever I would draw a large circle.

I just upgraded the video card to an old gforce 3 and it ran fine afterwords.

Yeah, forget the big buck processors, go for the big buck video cards.

Anything over 1gb of (system) ram probably won't get used, though.

Are you buying it or pirating it?>

Buying it.
