The graphs below show the 3D performance improvements obtained during the tests, with results in how smooth the navigation experience is measured in Frames Per Second (FPS) while exploring the virtual model and 3D Marker loading in seconds. Note that the next-generation desktop application is on the corner and will bring even more enhancements early next year! Follow Graphisoft Insights and BIMx News to stay up-to-date. Increased 3D performance thanks to the Apple silicon supportīIMx Desktop Viewer performs better in 3D running natively on Apple silicon. Large-scale, mixed-use, with many Layoutsġ.

BIMx Desktop Viewer build 4390 - Apple silicon running natively.

BIMx Desktop Viewer 4390 - Intel running on Rosetta 2 simulation.BIMx Desktop Viewer 4025 - Intel running on Rosetta 2 simulation (previous version).We performed the same sets of tests using three different BIMx Desktop Viewer versions: M1 processor with 8 CPU cores and 8 GPU coresĮven better performance is expected on macOS devices with M1 Max, M1 Ultra, and M2 chip.

BIMx iOS also received a performance boost see more details below.įor the benchmark tests on BIMx Desktop Viewer, we used a Mac mini (Late 2020) equipped with the following: This article describes how loading time and 3D performance improved in BIMx Desktop Viewer. We highly recommend using Apple silicon computers based on our measurements. An update also arrived in Apple App Store.
