    Hi,

    I just got my new ux32vd and started to do some cad (archicad)...
    I realized there is no significate differance between teh gt 620 and 4000hd. I choosed them via the nvida control panel and there is no differance, what Im doing wrong?

    Even my old quadro fx 880 is faster in archicad then both of them...

    I'm not sure about this, but have you ever thought it's because both the GT620M and Intel HD 4000 aren't workstation graphic cards and they aren't supported by archiCAD?

    Yes, I thought about this but over all benchmarks the gt 620 is better then the quadro fx 880...
    I tested in cinebench and its about 50% faster. I just get the feeling my gt 620m isnt really "running" because there are no differance betwen choosing the 620 or intel on the control panel of nvidia. Anyway to check this?

    Try going to the nvidia control panel and see which gpu the system chooses to use when archiCAD is open.

    I checked this its the nvidia, even its faster in benchmarks it seems its not faster in cad and professional... maybe its not only up to the gpu and archicad ist using for some calculating the cpu and the 3515u ist equal to the 940xm :)
