hi all,

just launched solidworks on my laptop and it gave me the message that system resources were running critically low so i went and checked taskmanager.

apparantly intel needs 1.7gb of my memory to send some data to their servers...

bit wheird... as for vivaldi, its basically a modified version of chrome.

Not entirely sure what your laptop is. But could it be that 1,7gb of system memory is used for the onboard graphics card, and shows up like this?

Gamesystem: X3700, 32GB memory @3200mhz, GTX1080 Hybrid

Unraid system: Epyc 7352, 24/48, 96GB ECC buffered @2666mhz, 2x GT710, GTX1050Ti

Also it seems you're not the only person.

Here they suggest you disable it if you do not use a 2in1 system.
