Difference between Workstation and PC
Compared to the Personal computer and mid-range computer, Workstation is more capable than PC or business laptops but less than a mid-range computer. The question arises how are Workstation and Personal Computer different from each other.
How to come to a conclusion about which one is the best? Have a look at the table below for the differences between the two.
Professionals who are on the move find mobile workstations convenient for their work.
Workstation
Hardware Differences- Workstation microprocessors have RISC that is reduced instruction set computing + The number of instructions permanently stored is more as RISC streamlines and increases the data processing + Microprocessors have 32 bit addressing + Microprocessors can be up to 64-bit processors which can process 4 billion times of a data processing + High processing power can run 3-dimensional graphics and multi-tasking software + The workstation has ECC RAM, Multiple Processor Cores, RAID, SSD and optimized GPU to handle a huge amount of data and for graphics + The workstation is high priced. It starts with $1500 and can go up to $3000 + It needs to have high power for CAD/Animation, data analysis, video and audio creation and editing. + Workstations are more durable as they are built to withstand huge data for long hours + Intel Xeon is preferred to handle loads of data. Xeons are good at Multithread Processing.
Personal Computer (PC)
Hardware Differences- PC microprocessors have CISC that is complex instruction set computing + The number of instructions permanently stored is very less + Not very complex + It is 16 bit addressing + The microprocessor can be up to the 32-bit processor + Is not out of the box suitable for 3-dimensional graphics and multi-tasking software + The above is not required in PC as they are designed to handle small data + The business solutions PC’s can be got at $500 and a high end one at $1000 + The tasks such as email, web surfing and word processing do not need high power. + It is not designed to take heavy loads and ideal for smart office solutions + Intel i7 is sufficient for business or home office needs. It comes with onboard graphics.
Workstation Vs. Thin Clients
A workstation is a typical computer with its operating system, and software residing on its hard drive. It works independently, or they can be attached to the server.
A thin client does not have hard drive or software. It has a basic operating system and has to connect to the server to perform operations. They do not work independently.
The supported softwares are:
- Dassault Systems SolidWorks: The Dassault Systems SolidWorks 3D software tools help CAD professionals to simulate publish and manage their data.
- Autodesk Inventor: The Inventor professional 3D CAD software consists of easy to use tools. You can design, document and do product simulation. These tools help in the prototyping of products, validating them before the products go into
- Autodesk AutoCAD: The Autodesk AutoCAD consists of specially designed toolsets suitable for industrial purposes. It offers good mobility and convenient to mobile and web apps.
- Dassault Systemes CATIA: Multi-form software CATIA for CAD, CAM, and It has provision to remodel existing 3D designs and create and update product designs and deliverables.
- Siemens NX: Leading edge technology NX’s CAD software solution increases the momentum of design. The software helps in improving the quality and productivity as well as reduces the cost.
- PTC Creo: Creo is a group of apps developed by PTC which supports product design for manufacturers. Creo has a unique set of capabilities for a user role in product development cycle.
