Creo 1, Creo 2 hardware requirements

[egifford]

Has anyone seen anything from PTC regarding Hardware Requirements or perhaps a FPS (Future Platform Support) document for Creo 1 and Creo 2? The hardware docs on the PTC site that I can find only go to Wildfire 5 a.k.a. Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 and the FPS doc for Windchill is there, but nothing for Creo 1 & 2. I'm about the spec a batch of new workstations and anticipate going to Creo #-something within the lifespan of these PCs. I'd imagine something certified to WF5 requirements would work, but I'd like to have something from PTC along those lines.

Thanks

Hi Erik,

Thanks for your question.

As Creo is a suite of intergrated design applications, the hardware requirements depend on the application you want to install and work with. For example, the Creo Sketch application will have less intensive hardware requirements than Creo Parametric.

I'm assuming from your example of Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro/ENGINEER) that you are looking for the hardware requiremets for Creo Parametric. I'd recommed you invest in a hardware configuration that supports Creo Elements/Pro today - as this configuration will also meet the requirements for Creo Parametric.

Many customers also invest in more RAM and upgrade the graphics specs, especially if you are planning to work with larger assemblies.

I hope this helps.

Best Regards,
