Minimum Hardware Requirements

SimSolid is only supported on the Windows platform. It is recommended to use a Windows 10 OS on an Intel I7 based computer, or similar, with at least 4-cores and 16 GB of memory. For all graphics features to be supported, SimSolid requires an OpenGL graphics card, version 3.1 or higher.

Hardware Settings

The following options are available:

  • Change the number of cores/processors used by analysis solver. By default, the application detects all available cores/processors, and uses them all during the computation to maximize the performance. The number of cores to be used can be decreased if desired in order to reserve some cores for other processes running on the computer.
  • Clear all entries in the Windows registry related to the application, such as material database location, and so on.
