Revit: PC requirements and the PC you need
Design and CADby Autodesk
About Revit
Building Information Modelling (BIM) for designing and documenting buildings.
What Revit needs
In plain words: to run at all it needs a mid-range graphics card from a few years ago, and to run it well a decent mid-range graphics card, with 32GB of memory.
| Part | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Graphics card | DirectX 11 capable graphics card with Shader Model 5; 4GB of video memory recommended | DirectX 11 capable graphics card with Shader Model 5 and 6GB of video memory |
| Processor | Intel or AMD processor with 2 GHz or higher base clock | Intel or AMD processor with 2 GHz or higher base clock |
| Memory (RAM) | 16 GB RAM | 32 GB RAM or higher |
| Storage | 30 GB for installation, 100 GB free for temp files recommended | 30 GB for installation, 100 GB free for temp files recommended |
| Windows | 64-bit Windows 10 v1809 or later, or Windows 11 | 64-bit Windows 10 v1809 or later, or Windows 11 |
From Autodesk's own page (for Revit 2026), checked 16 October 2026. The makers sometimes change these; their page is always right. Where the makers give only the graphics card's memory, the strength we match on is our own estimate from that memory.
Will my computer run Revit?
Type your graphics card, processor and memory. On most computers we find the graphics card for you.

Questions about Revit on PC
What graphics card do I need for Revit?
The makers say: DirectX 11 capable graphics card with Shader Model 5; 4GB of video memory recommended as a minimum, and DirectX 11 capable graphics card with Shader Model 5 and 6GB of video memory recommended.
How much memory (RAM) does Revit need?
At least 16GB, and 32GB is recommended. For big projects, more memory always helps.
Can a PC from Sandbox Computers run Revit?
Yes. 72 of our PCs meet the recommended spec, from £1,169. They are built and tested in Worcester.
Is a gaming PC good for Revit?
Usually, yes. A gaming PC has a strong graphics card, a fast processor and plenty of memory, which is what Revit needs too. Some professional work is certified only on workstation graphics cards: if your employer or client requires that, ask us first.
How we match: we compare the graphics card and memory in each PC with the makers' spec. For professional work with certified hardware, or very large projects, ask us for a custom build. See all the software we cover.
