Thanks. It looks like on the version i'm running I don't have the DX11 Option. I just have Advanced Open GL2/Direct 3D renderers. I am running driver 425.53, all other Nvidia settings are the same. Using the Nvidia GPU monitor I can see the P2000 isn't being utilized when the renderer is set as one of the said two options, but it does get used on the basic OpenGL option. We're unable to disable the integrated graphics as we're using 2 additional monitors on a dock, so the laptop screen runs off the Intel chip. (Or so i'm told)

So it seems the 'advanced OpenGL2 / Direct 3D' renderer doesn't work with the P2000, it instead uses the Intel integrated graphics, even if it force it to use the P2000 in Nvidia control panel. Changing to standard OpenGL has fixed this. Strange as I have other software using OpenGL 2 renderer and they work just fine.

I've recently switched from a workstation PC with a Quadro K620, to a HP zBook 15 with i7 and Quadro P2000. On every other CAD-based software I've used the the HP is significantly faster, but on IronCAD innovate 2016 the performance is awful. Even loading small models in tanks the performance and anything more than that the software becomes unusable. Does any one have any suggestions as to how I can improve the performance in IronCAD? Thanks
