Design mode requirements:

For the best experience with Aurora Design Mode, it's important to ensure your computer meets our minimum specifications.  We recommend using Aurora on a computer that meets these requirements:

 

  Minimum -Residential Projects Minimum -Commercial Projects Recommended -All Projects
Processor (CPU) i5 dual-core 2Ghz+  i5 dual-core 2Ghz+ i7, dual/quad-core 2.5Ghz+
 Memory (RAM)  4Gb 8Gb   8Gb
Graphics Card (GPU) Integrated GPU (such as Intel Iris e.t.c. with 1.5Gb+ memory)

Recommended: Discreet nVidia/AMD GPU  

Less optimal: Integrated GPU (Intel Iris with 2Gb memory e.t.c.) will work, but might be slow, especially if using a high-res monitor (1980x1080 and above). 

  Discreet nVidia / AMD GPUs released after 2015 with 2Gb+ memory (4Gb ideal for large >7Mw projects). Ideally - GeForce 9xx, 10xx series* or newer or AMD Radeon 4xx, 5xx series or newer

*2015+ GeForce Quadro GPU series also has great performance and fall under "Recommended / Ideal" section
