RAM is where a lot of bottlenecks can occur if not adequately considered. For Revit, 16GB is the bare minimum, but in the UAE’s high-stakes architecture market where projects often include large and complex models, 32GB or even 64GB RAM is ideal. Most of the laptops used by professionals here allow RAM upgrades, which makes future-proofing easier. Fast DDR5 RAM is now becoming the new standard, offering better performance in multitasking scenarios common in BIM workflows.
