The latest model has a brand new design that's thinner and lighter than ever, and it also packs a larger, brighter screen, which is ideal for CAD projects. The new Apple MacBook Air (M2, 2022) is a brilliant alternative to the more expensive MacBook Pro models, and despite its cheaper price, it still offers excellent performance when running CAD software. See our MacBook Pro 14-inch review for more details. But if you’re looking for a premium Apple laptop and are willing to pay the price, you won’t find better. This laptop is very much the Rolls Royce option of MacBooks, and may be overkill for a lot of people’s needs. You’ll also benefit from the most beautiful, super-high res screen, and up to a whopping 8TB of storage. You’ll doubtless get less than that doing intense work in AutoCAD, but it’s a surety that you’ll get through a professional day without having to recharge. The MacBook Pro also offers up to 17 hours of battery life: the longest of any Mac ever. Note also that you can run iOS here as well, so you can open up the AutoCAD mobile app if that helps your workflow. In our review, we found that it was more than capable of running both AutoCAD and resource-hungry 3D modelling software like Maya, 3DS Max, and Fusion 360 with ease. Side, side note: Please put AR viewing into the Fusion 360 app! No reason not to with this kind of performance and it'd just be plain awesome.Running macOS Big Sur on Apple’s proprietary eight-core M1 Pro or Max chip, with up to 64GB RAM, this is the most powerful laptop Apple has ever created. When should I start raising the white flag? I just learned that the iPhone 12's processor outperforms my i7-6600K in my desktop by more than 40%. As Fusion 360 is single-core heavy, it looks like the BEST performance period for Fusion might be on a Mac in the near future.Īlso, (somewhat) disappointing side fact. Also given the fact that the chip is only clocked at 3.1 GHz, there's a lot of head room for future performance improvements as well.
That crazy processor just outscored intel's i9-10900k by almost 25% in single-core performance, and AMD's new Ryzen 9 5950X by ~6%. But it's impossible to ignore the benchmarks that the M1 just put out on geekbench. Considering that they also highlighted Fusion 360 in their keynote, I'd hope there's some good collaboration planned.ĭisclaimer: I'm a die-hard windows guy. I'd also like some info on what the future of Fusion 360 would look like on the Mac.
