Can someone give me advice please. The online support is very inefficient. My son has an old windows 8 machine so I will buy him another laptop to accomodate the creative Apps especially Fresco. However the laptop I am looking at has DirectX12 not 12.1 and a  Intel HD Graphics 4600 display chip. Is this sufficient to run the programs? No one at Adobe seems able to advise me. Help please. Pete.

Adobe Fresco doesn't run on Macs or PCs. It only runs on iPads, various Windows Surface thingies, or Wacom tablets.

Hi Folks. Looking to purchase a more up to date laptop that will run the Apps including Fresco. Anyone know if this will suffice? All help greatly appreciated.It's a Lenovo thinkpad L540, FHD 1080, New 256SSD, i5-4300M 2.6, 8Gb,c of Ram. It has the intel 4600 display chipset or gpu and runs Directx 12 but not version 12.1 as required on the Fresco specifications. Cheers, Pete.

No. Check the system requirements for Fresco carefully, it has surprises.

Your laptop won't support Fresco.  See  system requirements.

Also refer to the Creative Cloud system requirements.

The system requirements for each app are different and you need to check each one. Fresco is an interesting case. It is not available for Mac at all, so far as I can see. It is available for iOS (which is NOT MAC) on certain iPad models, and for a very limited set of Windows tablets (the Surface range but not all of it, and two others). It isn't designed for mainstream computers and laptops at all, which is where the mainstream apps run.

My mistake. I knew it didn't run on Windows PCs and made an unwarranted assumption.

Fresco is currently NOT available for Windows PCs. As far as I know, right now it only runs on Macs.

Can you update DirectX to 12.1?

What are the rest of the specs of the computer?

What other Adobe CC apps will he want to install?
