QuestionWill this computer work well for graphics programs like Fusion 360? I just installed Fusion 360 and it's saying my graphics card is out of date. Current computer is from 2010, but still works well otherwise. I guess it's time for new computer.
Asked 7 years ago by burgerman.
- Answer You need to find out what the MINIMUM requirements are for Fusion 360 to run correctly. If the requirements for video are that you have a video card that has two gigabytes of dedicated memory on the card or an integrated video system that can use up to two gigabytes of the computer's system RAM, in most cases, you should be able to run that program on the Lenovo Idea Centre 510A-15ABR AMD A12 Series Desktop computer. But to be safe be sure to consult Lenovo or Best Buy's Geek Squad about this model's integrated video system, and how much system RAM it is able to use to run a program like that. Better to be sure and informed. I have seen this video system take as much as four gigabytes of system memory (RAM), but this may be blind luck or an anomaly. I hope this helps.

QuestionDoes it support an upgrade to three monitors?
Asked 7 years ago by peggy.
- Answer It does but it has to have a older connecter to support it what I would recommend is to buy a multi HDMI port to connect it to your HDMI port on the back of your computer to then support multiple monitors without having to spend money on a graphics card a multi HDMI port only coast around 20 to 30 dollars depending on the brand.

QuestionWhat computer would you recommend for a twitch streamer? I will be using the OBS software for he broadcasting and all my streams will be from game consoles.
Asked 8 years ago by AOTS.
- Answer It depends on the requirements of the software you will be using. We recommend you check with the software publisher's web sites for their compatibility with Windows 10 Home 64-bit operating system and the minimum/recommended hardware requirements (Is a Graphics card required, the processor speed and the minimum required system RAM and the minimum available hard drive space) to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration.

Questiondoes it have expansion PCI slot(s)?
Asked 8 years ago by dave.
- Answer Yes it has one PCI express slot but I would not recommend to buy a graphics card because it has a 185 watt power supply which is very low and will not be able to support a graphics card if you wish to play games on it then you will be playing lower end titles because of the integrated graphics. if you are planning on buying a graphics card for multiple monitors I would highly suggest buying a multi monitor HDMI port instead they are not that expensive and will get the job done.
