September 22, 2000


Budapest/San Francisco/Austin
(Texas), September 22, 2000 –
Graphisoft R&D recently
certified two of Dell Computer
Corporation’s most popular
workstations – the Precision 620
and the Precision 420 – as
meeting the hardware
requirements for Archicad
6.5.
Dell is widely recognized for
its work with independent
software vendors like Graphisoft
in pre qualifying popular
applications to avoid unpleasant
surprises when a workstation is
deployed to engineers or
developers. PC Magazine recently
selected the Precision 420 for
its Editors’ Choice award for
delivering such assurances.
Dell Precision Workstations are
intended for professional users
who demand exceptional
performance in the
computer-aided design (CAD),
digital content creation (DCC),
geographic information systems
(GIS), computer animation,
software development and
financial analysis markets. Dell
holds the number one position
and a 23 percent share in the
worldwide workstation
market.
Released in February 2000, the
Precision 620 is Dell’s most
powerful workstation, and
incorporates single or dual
Intel Pentium® III Xeon
processors at 733 MHz or 800MHz
with a front side bus speed of
133 MHz. Both systems were
tested for Archicad 6.5 hardware
requirements with 128, 256, 512
Mbytes RAM, and ELSA Gloria II
Pro 64 Mbytes RAM and nVidia
GeForce 2 GTS 32 Mbytes RAM
graphics cards.
