Graphics Performance

rex_hansonrex_hanson Member Posts: 41 ✭✭
I just got a new PC from my son-in-law and now OnShape is horribly slow. I ran the performance check and the graphics performance was basically at zero on the graph. So then I ran the chrome:gpu check and got a report with several problems identified. I was wondering if someone could help me understand this report and what I need to do. The attached report follows:   (Thank You!)

    I just saw this today, Is this still an issue for you?

    that graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT) is extremely outdated. It could be due to it being 6 years older than webGL (which is what Onshape needs to render)

    so it is likely not compatible even with new drivers. 

    being that old, i would like to know the rest of your computer specs to see if upgrading the video card is even an option
  • rex_hansonrex_hanson Member Posts: 41 ✭✭
    I've searched but wasn't able to find an updated driver that fixes the problem with my graphics card. Does anyone have a recommendation for a new graphics card that will work with Onshape? Here are the specs for my computer:
    Processor: Intel Core i7 930 @ 2.8 GHz
    Memory: 18 GB
    System: 64-bit, x64 based processor
    OS: Windows 10 Home
    Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT

    Either the CPU or the graphics card has a water cooled system. My son-in-law put the system together for me with components he had from other computers he'd put together.

    I pretty much only use this computer to run Onshape and check e-mail. No gaming or anything like that. I would like decent performance but it doesn't need to be bleeding edge or screaming fast. I don't know anything about webGL.

    Thanks in advance for any recommendations you can offer.
  • john_mcclaryjohn_mcclary Member, Developers Posts: 3,933 PRO
    can you open up your case and find the model number of the motherboard? a photograph will do.
    it should be easy to spot, here are some examples:



    We would need to see what is compatible with your motherboard.

    It looks like the processor only supports pci express 1.0 so you don't want to buy anything expensive as most of the performance will be reduced by rest of the other components.

    I'd start by looking at something like this. It is cheap and modern enough it should support webGL. I can't say how well Onshape will  run on it. But by the sounds of it, this may already be over powered for your motherboard/processor.

    If you want my honest opinion, this may be a lost cause. From the stats I can see in the original post, this computer is far too old. You may be better off spending a little more and get a chromebook.

    Here is a picture of my CPU board. Sorry it took me so long to get it. Let me know if this isn't what you need to see. Thank you!

  • rex_hansonrex_hanson Member Posts: 41 ✭✭
    Sounds good. I'll order this and get it installed. Thank you very much!
  • john_mcclaryjohn_mcclary Member, Developers Posts: 3,933 PRO
    I'd like to know how this turns out for you, good luck!
  • rex_hansonrex_hanson Member Posts: 41 ✭✭
    Just installed my new graphics card. The new graphics card is compatible, but performance is very poor. See screen shot from the systems check.
  • john_mcclaryjohn_mcclary Member, Developers Posts: 3,933 PRO
    Wow, take that back if you can.

    But liko I said, the rest of your system is old tech.

    A chrome book wont do 'much', more, but should be at least 1/3 of the way up the bar 

    really. What do you want to be able to do vith Onshape
  • rex_hansonrex_hanson Member Posts: 41 ✭✭
    Thanks for the quick response! I think I screwed up when running the systems check last time. I tried it again and got better results. But I also thought it was interesting that the GL Renderer was different this time. See screen shot below. This is much better, but still not as good as on my 10 year old Mac. I might try to contact NVIDIA to make sure I have my driver settings correct.
    Regarding what I want to do, for the most part I model things to make on my 3D printer. My cheek riser models have a lot of small features. My other activities are to model up woodworking projects once in a while, but these are pretty simple.

    Good, I'm glad it is doing better.   For what your doing it should be fine then. how does it perform now in your model?

    Screen resolution is 1920 x 1080 as recommended by the setup utility. Performance seems to be OK with my models. Thanks for all the help.
