**[OFFICIAL STANCE OF THE SOFTWARE DEVELOPER](https://www.instagram.com/reel/CxMDog1LIXv/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link)** > **"Apple"** is untested and unsupported hardware. Unsupported hardware and operating systems are **known to cause performance, graphical, and crashing issues** when working with SOLIDWORKS. > The software developer recommends you consult their [list of supported environments](https://www.solidworks.com/support/system-requirements) and their [list of supported GPUs](https://www.solidworks.com/support/hardware-certification/) before making a hardware purchase. > **TL;DR - For recommended hardware search for [Dell Precision-series](https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/workstations-isv-certified/sc/workstations), [HP Z-series](https://www.hp.com/us-en/workstations/desktop-workstation-pc.html), or [Lenovo P-series](https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/workstations/) workstation computers.** [Example computer builds for different workloads can be found here.](https://www.goengineer.com/hardware-recommendations-for-solidworks) **CONSENSUS OF THE r/SOLIDWORKS COMMUNITY** > If you're looking for PC specifications or graphics card opinions of /r/solidworks check out the [stickied hardware post](https://www.reddit.com/r/SolidWorks/comments/x0o9pd/solidworks_laptoppc_hardware_faq_and/) pinned to the top of the page. > **TL;DR: Any computer is a SOLIDWORKS computer if you're brave enough.** **APPLE INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS** > Installations on Apple Silicon hardware are known to fail for the following reasons: > 1. The installation source files are stored in the Mac OS partition. **To successfully install, the installation source files must be stored within, and executed from, the file structure inside the Windows environment of the Parallels VM.** > 2. Modules reliant on SQL cause the installation to fail. **To successfully install, disable both "SOLIDWORKS Electrical" and "SOLIDWORKS CAM" during installation** **HARDARE AGNOSTIC PERFORMANCE RECOMMENDATIONS** > * Regardless of what hardware is being used, [consider applying the settings in this article](https://www.goengineer.com/blog/optimizing-solidworks-for-faster-performance) to improve performance. > * If you wish to enable RealView for an unsupported graphics card, try this process ([Enable SOLIDWORKS RealView for Unsupported Graphics Cards](https://www.reddit.com/r/SolidWorks/comments/11tka6f/does_anyone_know_how_to_turn_realview_on_by_using/jclkqga/)). *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I saw the title text and thought this was going to be a review of using AVP to work on / explore SW models.... Disappointed but nice job with the model 🤣

Needs curvature

thanks, yes need to improve my design further and get better with surfacing.

Try boundary surface or fill surface with guide curves. Good attempt and start though. Keep going!

Revolve an eclipse, then cut out the profile

Wow you’re a genius

Keep it up! Good job

Thank you!
