Do you think mbp 13 can be used for using auto cad,catia,ansys and cfd software if not where can i give them suggestion to improve their graphics performance on mbp13 (i cant afford mbp15 and also it is not portable)

i need to use powerfull application like auto cad,ansys,nxcad,catia(i am going to use Windows 7)
is the intel 5100 enough for these pourpose
i am not use it as professional level but i need a performance of GT 650m
i am not going for mbp 15 becuase
-price
-portability
-battery life
please dont suggest me other windows machine becuase i consider to buy razer blade but battery was very poor and over heating
i think apple can improve their mbp 13 by
-intel i7 quad processor
-extra graphics nvidia gt or gtx series (without sacrificing battery life)
-touch screen
-4k screen

I would strongly not recommend the 13" MBP for use with software like AutoCad, ANSYS and any CFD program, not due to the graphics porcessor but due to the cpu.  If you are going to run a CFD program like FLUENT or CD STAR this is the wrong platform to use.  You need to use something of the class of the Mac Pro with the 6-core Xeon processor and a lot of memory.  That software is a huge computational load and the cpu in the 13" MBP will overheat even with a small problem to analyze.
ANSYS and FLUENT are multi-threaded and will benefit for the capabilities of the Mac Pro.

  • Hi there, I have just bought an ipad4 but it will not connect to my internet. I have tried every suggestion going to no avail. My netgear DG834g router is fairly old , do you think this is the problem? I am at a loss now and very frustrated!

    Hi there, I have just bought my first ipad4 and have spent all weekend trying to connect to the internet. I have tried all Apple suggestions to no avail
    . My Netgear DG834g router is a few years old now. Do you think this may be the problem? Do they have compatibility issues after a while? My ipad upgrade is IOs 6. I am at a loss what else to do and needless to say extremely frustrated!
    Thanks.

    First check that your router has its latest firmware.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Hello, i designed a logo in RGB format,1600 X 900 pixel...i m using this logo in website and also i wanted to print it in broucher...i m cofused for the setting n size...plz help

    i m confused about logo size and format plz help me out...@

    You can design one logo for both purposes. But you cannot save just one file suitable for both. You need to make the design and then make a reduced size JPEG or PNG for your web site. You also need a version for print, but unless you know what is needed you cannot save it. Just keep the original PSD until you hear what your printer or designer needs for the brochure.

  • Can you sync your iPod touch with computer 1 for computer 1's iCal items and also sync the same iPod touch with computer 2 for computer 2's music, apps, etc. items?

    I have a MacBook Pro through my college, and I have all my iCal items on that computer, but I have all my music, apps, etc. on a PC desktop that is my personal home computer.  I am wondering if I can sync my iPod touch with my MacBook for the iCal items and also with my PC for the music and such without loosing either of the two when trying to sync with the other computer?

  • What do you think of this new computer configuration for me?

    I'm about to buy a new computer and would appreciate any feedback about my choices. I'm buying it because my current computer bogs down using Content Aware Fill and HDR and is too slow for games.
    Here is what I currently plan to buy:
    Alienware m18x Laptop
    Intel i7 2630QM 2.0 GHz (2.8 w turbo boost, 6MB Cache)
    Win 7 64 bit
    RAM - 16GB dual channel DDR3 at 1600MHz
    Dual overkill video cards for gaming (2x AMD HD 6970M)
    80 GB SSD for OS and programs
    120 GB SSD (40 GB for games and about 80GB for Scratch)
    750 GB 7200 rpm hard drive external usb 3.0 for files.
    See anything stupid yet? :-)
    For another $150 (5% of total) I could get a CPU that is 10% faster but I think it might be smarter to go cheap now and upgrade in a year or two.
    16GB is all I can squeeze into this laptop without spending a fortune.
    Since I can't have more RAM, I think having SSD for scratch might be good.
    I don't know what size files I generate but my camera makes 18M pixels pics. I usually open fewer than five at any one time. I usually don't open more than five layers. I also use LR 3.4. I'm also getting a Dell 30" 2560x1600 monitor.
    I can afford speed but I don't like throwing money away. I need a laptop instead of a desktop because I travel and like to bring my computer with me.
    Can you suggest any improvements? See any bottlenecks?
    Thanks for advice!
    Doug

    With 16G of RAM will 80Gb be enough for Scratch?
    I think that depends on what you try to do...
    I have 16 GB myself, and I saw scratch use go over 200 GB once when stitching a large panorama.  I was flabbergasted that Photoshop could think it needed 200 GB of space for what would be a resultant pano that was only a few hundred megapixels.
    Just twiddling the Liquify filter can cause GB after GB to be used up by files of the form *_MVM_*.tmp in short order.  Unfortunately, these temporary files aren't put on the drive identified for scratch, but in the folder identified by TEMP - usually (that's an open sore spot here on the forum at the moment).
    I'd have to say that in general you'll probably be okay.

  • HT1267 My iPod player in my iPhone isn't working properly it will play for a few seconds then stop and also the volume level will appear then disappear what can I do to remedy this?

  • Airport in macbook pro doesn't auto-find signals quickly and also drops sig

    So recently, my macbook pro, which I use on campus, has been acting up when it comes to the airport. If I close the screen and open it up when I want to use the laptop, the airport won't find WIFI signals even though the computer itself has not moved. I have to use the "assist me" in network preferences or turn off the airport and turn it back on before it will find a signal. And then, if that's not enough of a hassle, it will randomly cut off from the WIFI signals I have and I have to go back and reconnect manually. If anyone can help me with this, I'd really appreciate it. The macbook pro is only a year and a half old, it should not be acting up for the price I paid for this thing and the hype everyone gives them.

    System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>Airport. Select 'By default select preferred networks'. Put the network name in the box and click Apply.

  • My 2 sons have ipods, when they load $$, they both have access to it.  How can I give them both their own accounts?

    My 2 sons have ipods.  When money is loaded, they both have access to it.  How can I get them to have their own accounts so they can't share money?

    They need their own iTunes accounts. You have to be at leasty 13 to create an account and you need a unique email address from them.  They will need the password for the account that purchased app already in order to update those apps.

  • Can I use iTunes in my Mac and also on my virtual machine in Parallels?

    I have iTunes in the Mac and am totally happy with it. However, my library allows downloading of books, and some of them are only available in wma format. I have Windows XP in Parallels 5, and was able to download a book successfully in Parallels, using the software provided by the library. However, when I put my iPod in to try to transfer the files to it, iTunes in the Mac kept opening, and the software in Windows said it couldn't find the iPod. I tried designating the USB port for Parallels, but that didn't help. My iPod happens to be formatted for PC, so I think that wouldn't be the problem. So, my only way to get this book out of Windows would be to burn it onto 30 CDs.
    My question is, is it possible to do what I'm trying to do--if so, do I need to open an iTunes account in Windows, and would it have to be a different account, or is it not possible to have two accounts in the same computer? If it's not possible I'll just give up on this idea and stick with mp3 formatted books, but if it is possible, could someone tell me how to do it? Thanks for any help you can provide. Barbara

    Thanks, but please explain. I can't download wma files into Overdrive Media for the Mac, and had to install another version inside Parallels, and that's where the downloaded files are. How could I get those files into the Overdrive software on the Mac? Thanks, Barbara
