Chief Architect® is a developer of 3D Architectural home design software for builders, interior designers, architects, and DIY home enthusiasts. Chief Architect uses intelligent building tools to create a 3D model of the structure and automatically generates all of the building systems of the home.
During Modeling and Assemblies activities, Architect® will not take advantage of may CPU cores. The best performance for such tasks is achieved with the fastest top core speed. The Intel® i7 and i9 are favored to the XEON® CPU delivering the best performance/price ratio. Simulation and Rendering will take full advantage of multiple cores and hyper thread capabilities. The i9-11900KF represents the optimal value with 8 cores and 16 threads with a high clock spread. @Xi provides professionally overclock versions favoring an absolute top core or all cores at higher frequency to deliver optimal balanced Modeling & Simulation Architect performance. HW assisted DirectX capabilities are a must, therefore only NVIDIA® GeForce® video cards are offered. SSD are also a must and NVMe M.2 are recommended. For budgets and requirements beyond the Platinum configuration, i9 X-Series and XEON CPU can be custom quoted.
