System requirement for Creo 4

I am planning to buy a new laptop which will be my workstation while working with the Creo 4. The projects I work on are not very complex and big. On the PTC website I have found a pdf file called Hardware Note-Creo 4 with system specifications recommended for Creo 4. The recommended memory according to the document is 4 GB. However, the GPO solution the support center for Creo in my country has advised me to order a computer with minimum memory capacity of 16 GB. 

Now I doubt about the information on PTC Hardwar Note- Creo 4 and I am wondering which exact system requirements I should go for. Since upgrading the laptop is not as easy as a desktop, I would prefer to order a laptop which would work for couple of years with Creo without any problem. 

 

Could you plz help me to collect the right system requirements?

The PTC recommended 4GB is the absolute minimum!!!

We had a user running Creo2 on his 4GB machine and it was unbearably slow.

Changed him to a 8GB machine and he can now get his work done.

If you want a laptop to last a few years, I would go with nothing less than 16GB.

    Remember the PTC published spec list is a MINIMUM!!!!

     

    My specs for a laptop:

    17" screen with high resolution

    NVIDIA graphics chip in the Quadro family, not GeForce

    3.0+gHz processor speed, I prefer Intel Xeon chips over the i-series

    16GB ram minimum

    256GB SSD for the main drive

    1TB drive for data files/storage

    Windows 10 OS
