compatibility nvidia gtx with autocad 2015

Good morning to all, I hope I have not mistaken section in which to post my dilemma:
After months of research, I managed to tighten the circle on some laptops that allow me to work with mobile autocads.
I have come to this point though, given the considerable expense for my pockets, I am trying to inform me about the full compatibility of the video card with autocad and 3dsmax.
autocad use (for now in version 2015) for 3d design and render, and 3d files on which work are often heavy.
at the beginning I was focusing on the nvidia picture, because I read around that its drivers provide better performance in the design phase. However in various forums someone argued that this was true until 2012, and that the last geforce gtx today as today are fully compatible with autocad and well exploited for graphic acceleration. practically, many online focus plunge on the comparison between gtx and picture, but seem to speak only to the video gamer, not to those who make use of 3d modeling.
Do you have any advice on this?
Does anyone have experience using autocad or 3dmax with video cards of the type gtx 970m, or gtx 965m?
Thank you very much for your attention!
 
here tests with a comparison similar to your interest.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ire7vsls0he
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ij3oezep0bsI personally tried a computer with nvidia painting 600 and another with geforce gtx650.
the price of the two components was similar (a little more expensive picture), but in use cad the difference in favor of picture is significant.
But I don't know.
thank you very much for the precious answer: I am having great difficulty finding info on the subject.
investigating various international forums, it seems that nvidia gtx, from 690m onwards, have great difficulties with autocad to be recognized as primary in hardware acceleration. not only: once disabled the graphic acceleration for integrated gpus (in order to force the use of gtx) someone complains artifacts and errors even when designing 2d.
the thing is really worrying, even because the laptops that have a picture, even the most castrate, hardly descends below the 2000 euros...
 
I'm very surprised. Perhaps, but I am not an expert, the frameworks go a little better at equal spending. but it's the first time I've heard about these gtx problems.
 
update: I could carry out some tests on a gtx980m, and there were no problems whatsoever. That leaves me hopefully about the 970m!
 
qui there are a bit of bench to note that autocad uses non opengl sayingcx, for this reason the gtx are faster than the picture, because they have the most powerful gpu regardless of the optimized opengl drivers.

this thing that on autocad, inventor etc software that use directx is better to use geforce read and read.
for what I have seen, to the test of the facts, but also on these software, painting makes him a bouquet so to geforce.
but the tests say more, and I have no documents that can support this mysis.
 
we say that if you are a company with the licenses purchased from thousands of euros, you are not looking at the four thousand euros of a high-end picture, obvious that they are certified, guaranteed and more reliable, at the same gpu better the picture, that however costs five times the gtx.
but only 5000 and 6000 have performance comparable to high-end gtx, and not always, and only on some cad is clear.
 
what I saw refers to entry level cards from less than 200 euros.
picture 600 (almost the smallest of the series) against similar price geforces or little less expensive. Unfortunately I have never seen a real professional card at work. :frown:
