From parametric modeling to automation, AutoDesk Inventor offers a wealth of options for CAD designers - but only if their hardware is supported and optimized for the task.
Our AutoDesk Inventor workstations are optimized for single and multi threaded workflows to maximize performance without wasted resources. You won’t find a more powerful computer for AutoDesk Inventor.
Every PC we create is hand-crafted by expert hands using only premium grade parts. The end result is a faster, more reliable PC that helps you get more done.
We’ve been building award winning workstations for professional workflows since 1997. It's that legacy that we continue to bring to every workstation PC we create today.
Inventor for 2D design and modeling is frequency bound, meaning the core speed of the processor is more important to overall performance than core count. For this reason, we recommend our ProMagix HD60 which offers clock speeds up to 5.3GHz to make the most of your productivity with a workflow focused mainly on 2D.
Using Inventor for rendering 3D objects or creating complex simulations is more compute heavy and does utilize the multi-threading of today’s processors. For heavy rendering you may find our HD80 to be best suited for your needs.
The ProMagix HD60 turned in the best results we have ever recorded...If you are looking for premier performance without spending six figures, the Velocity Micro ProMagix HD60 is definitely worth considering.

For most users mainly using Inventor for modeling or design, the ideal configuration is a high CPU core frequency with fewer CPU cores. If you have a workflow heavy on 3D rendering though, you will see some benefit from 10+ core CPUs.
Intel Xeon processors are great for highly threaded applications or those that require ECC RAM, but for Inventor, Core i7 or i9 are a much better value and typically will perform better overall.
That answer depends on your specific workflow. For most Inventor users, Geforce cards are a better value because of their GDDR6 vRAM and higher GPU frequency. Some power users may find they need the extra performance that upper tier Quadros can offer. Check out this blog post for more details, but Geforce is likely the best choice here.
Inventor does use a process called Ray Tracing to accurately depict the effects of shadow and light, creating photorealistic renderings using most engines. For that reason, we recommend an RTX series GPU to take advantage of that capability.
