Hi all.
I do a lot of 3D designing in the CAD program Autodesk 123d Design. This is an excellent CAD program. However, it only utilizes the CPU when performing calculations and rendering objects. So if the designs I am working on get too large or too complex the program slows down massively to the point where it becomes impossible to continue designing.
In my rig I also have a GTX 770 which, while designing, is completely idle. So I was wondering if there was any way that I could use some form of GPU/hardware acceleration to split the load between the CPU and GPU in order to have the program run faster?
Any help would be appreciated
These are the specs of my system:
CPU: i5-4690 @ 3.9GHz (4 cores & 4 threads)
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 770 SC ACX @ 1180MHz
Mobo: AsRock Z87 Extreme 3
RAM: 16GB of Crucial DDR3 1600MHz (2x 8GB)
Monitors: 2x 1920x1080p @ 60Hz
