Hey guys, I've been trying to figure out what would be some of the most important hardware components to upgrade for a computer at work. It is primarily used for SolidWorks 2007 and the user often complains of poor performance and sometimes instability. Any ideas which components would provide the most benefit?
Current System:
Intel P4 630 3GHz HT (not dual-core)
2 x 1GB PC2-4200 (running in dual-channel)
Seagate 7200.7 80GB SATA
Samsung 40GB 5400RPM (dedicated 1.5GB pagefile)
ATI FireGL V3100
I realize that SolidWorks has a mini-guide on their website with some recommendations, but they give very little indication as to which would be the most important upgrades.
Any input or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
