Pro-Engineer Wildfire kicks solidworks ass

just had to say it. that's what i work with, love it, although, i haven't had much of a chance to catch any time on solidworks, so i'm just blowing it out of my ass

pro-e vs solidwork isn't going to be a fair comparison.

Both works wonders for different element.

As an ID, solidworks is great for solid modeling.

I don't mind SW 05, we're running SP 1.1, it needs more power to run than previous versions, I've had to move up to a Gig of RAM and to an Nvida card, it does not like ATI cards at all. Three of us in the office had ATI cards and had to get them swapped out and they were very high end cards. Went to cheaper, Nvidia cards and runs smooth as silk. Meshes about the same to Algor as previous versions too.

Solidworks kicks ass.

Feature/dollar, you can't come close with anything else.

 

[MMike]

Hmmm..I have an ATI Radeon 9200 and half a gig of RAM it seems to work ok......

 

[Rockland]

My workstation here @ work has a Fire GL somethin in it and it looks like crap running SW.

 

[MMike]

I just found this

Apparently my video card is not approved. But it seems to work......

Hmm...we couldn't..running a Pentium III or 4? We're running 64 bit AMD boards, could be part of the problem for all I know too. It ran with the ATI cards, but it was Sllloooowww..
